You may like to include a student in your family life, or perhaps you know of someone who would like to - a friend, relative or retired couple. The experience is enriching and rewarding for both students and hosts.

What is the expectation of a host?
A host is expected to provide a clean and comfortable bedroom with bed, wardrobe (built-in or free-standing) and drawers, linen and towels, desk and lamp, heating in the room, meals and laundry.

What is the benefit of hosting?
* A chance to meet students from all over the world
* A great opportunity for your children to learn a different language
Share your culture while learning about your student's culture and country
* Prompt fortnightly payment ($290 from January 2018). Payments continue through the April, July and September holidays
* Short and long term guests available

We are looking for families who speak English as their first language, as well as some New Zealand/Chinese families.

We are always happy to hear from prospective host families, so if you would like more information please call or email today.
