International Homestay

PublishingPageContent
Everyone has an opportunity to play a part in sharing their life, home and provide memories and cultural experiences to an international high school student. If you have a spare room, why not become a host and receive a fortnightly payment to cover homestay expenses.

Now that travel restrictions have been lifted our international students and their parents will be on the lookout for a Queensland safe-haven to call home.

Homestay families provide the opportunity for visiting students to practice their English conversational skills and learn about Australian culture in a secure and caring home environment. International students develop lasting friendships with their host families.

Homestay families:

  • ​host international students for short or long stays
  • are carefully chosen from the school community
  • are committed to providing the best experience for the student
  • must have a current Blue Card
  • provide visiting students with their own room with study facilities, three meals each day and access to transport to and from school and school-related activities
  • receive payment for the accommodation they provide.

Homestay students:

  • ​are responsible for all costs of transportation to and from school and recreational activities
  • can be placed in a host family with another international student of a different nationality.

For more information on becoming a homestay provider,  contact our Homestay Coordinator: Trisha Hoguet on thoug26@eq.edu.au or on 4197 0111​
