Most international students tell us that the highlight of their stay is the relationship they forge with their homestay families. Yeppoon State High School works closely with our local community to find caring homestay families that will look after you for the duration of your stay in Australia.
We have a pool of homestay families located all over the Capricorn Coast, from all walks of life. Some of our families live on rural properties, others live in town. Some of our homestay families live near the beach, others live surrounded by Australia's unique bush. What you can be assured of is that we will try to match you with a homestay family that best meets your preferences.
Each family is personally visited and inspected by school personnel, checked by the Police and issued with a special card by the Queensland Government Childrens' Commissioner.
Homestay facilities provide a separate room for each student, 3 meals per day and assist in transport to and from school where appropriate.
Students from overseas are encouraged to become part of our families and learn about Australian life.
