Boarding Is Awesome

I started boarding in year 12 because I was keen to get more independence, save a lot of time commuting, and really enjoy my last year at school.  Although I was initially a little worried about getting to know everyone and fitting into the house, in hindsight it was one of the best decisions I have made.  Having that extra time each day has meant I’ve been able to spend more time exercising and hanging out with mates while maintaining a solid amount of study.  It has given me so much more time in the day to do things I enjoy and overall has made school a lot better.

As a former day boy, I’ve been lucky enough to also keep my connections to Mathers and all the guys there which has been great.  However being a part of School House has also been awesome as I have had the chance to meet all of the blokes and share laughs.  Every day people are making me crack up and I’m always happy in the house.  I only have a few terms left here now but I know that they will be some of my best at school.  I’m really glad I made the decision to do boarding and I’d highly recommend any day boys consider it.

Thanks,
