Boarding

International Boarding

Peace Boarding is a place where our students can feel safe; where they are free to pursue their studies and gain life-long friendships.

Peace Boarding... a home-away-from-home

Peace is very much a family environment. Everyone is helpful and supportive. It really is a great place to be! Boarding at Peace has taught me how to be independent; it has taught me a lot of things – too many to put into words. I’ve been a boarder for six years. It has made me the man I’ve become.

My name is Hope and I have boarded at Peace Lutheran College for five years, since I was a Year 8 student. My Boarding House is like my second home. I have always felt safe and supported and boarding students receive great care from everyone - not just the House Parents - we all care for one another like one big family. I really enjoy all the outside activities that are available. I have been involved in helping on the Rosie's food van that goes out into the community; I've competed in eisteddfods with my singing; and also played in netball tournaments. People tell me I have matured so much during my time at Peace Boarding and I'm sure this is because of the encouragement of the House Parents. Boarding at Peace has been a great experience for me and I would recommend it to anyone.
