Boarding: Our inclusive home away from home
A place where proud history meets the best of the future, Caulfield Grammar is a boarding school dedicated to providing rural and international students with access to innovative learning programs since its foundation in 1881.
Caulfield Campus offers boarding from Years 9 to 12 for girls and boys, allowing siblings to board at the same school. Our boarding house has a country heart, nestled in a school highly regarded for its thriving learning environment where students consistently achieve strong academic results. We support students to develop a ‘mind for life’ and feel empowered, deeply engaged and encouraged to follow whatever path they choose.
Modern accommodation
Caulfield Grammar’s boarding house provides room configurations designed to complement the demands of our learning program – ranging from single-bed to three-bed configuration options. All year 12 students are accommodated in single-bed rooms. Girls and boys share recreational and dining facilities and are accommodated in separate boarding houses.
Outstanding facilities
Boarders have access to the school’s outstanding facilities, including the library, tennis courts, swimming pool, gymnasium, basketball courts and weights room. Located just nine kilometres from Melbourne’s city centre and well serviced by public transport, students enjoy convenient access to Melbourne’s many attractions.
Our welcoming community
Our dedicated boarding team nurtures a strong family engagement and involvement, including through family and boarder orientation programs and an active Boarding Parents and Friends Group. Our community spirit is something we are very proud of.
Wellbeing at our core
Caulfield Grammar’s commitment to, and focus on, the connection between emotional health and learning outcomes is a vital component of the school’s boarding approach, not just for students but also for families. The wellbeing of our boarding students is proactively supported through a network of care that encompasses a strong partnership between home, school and community.
Having the right people around can make a huge difference to how boarders feel in the moments they need someone to talk to. Our boarding team offers guidance and support to ensure each child has everything they need in their day-to-day life.
