Boarding at Scotch College has a long and proud history but is still very much a boarding facility for today, meeting the needs and expectations of young men from regional Western Australia, interstate and overseas.

The Boarding village is a vibrant community of 170 boarders in Years 7 to 12 with an experienced team of academic and resident staff. We offer outstanding resources to motivate and assist boys in their success and a safe, caring community in which each boy is known and valued. Communication is vital in developing a culture of trust and security and the School works very hard to ensure the lines of communication between boys, staff, parents and the School remain open and transparent.

Upgrading facilities on a continual basis is also important to us. I have recently overseen the refurbishment of all three boarding houses to ensure all boarders have access to new iMac computers, new furniture and recreational facilities and upgraded TV equipment. This comes just a few years since the College opened a brand new Boarding house for boys in Years 10 to 12.

I am also currently undertaking a review of Boarding at Scotch to ensure policies and procedures reflect a culture supporting open communication, respect and trust. This enhances the boarding experience for boys and fosters improved relations within the entire boarding community.

I encourage you to take the time to view the boarding facilities at Scotch for yourself and would welcome the opportunity to meet with you personally.
