Welcome to the Co-ed Boarding House!

Boarding has traditionally been at the heart of the philosophy of our school since its foundation in 1898 and places great emphasis on the concept of a family community, whilst at the same time promoting individual responsibility and a personal learning journey.

Boarders are able to share their cultures and ethos with their peers, which in turn enhances their learning experiences, whilst building lasting friendships.

St George’s College offers a range of different boarding options to suit the needs of the family.

Full Boarding programme includes Monday to Sunday Boarding. Students can spend “weekends out” with parents’ approval, if invited to stay at a friends/family home.
Sunday evening/Monday to Friday Boarding is an option for those students who not only live far away from Buenos Aires but also for those who spend two hours or more a day travelling to and from school, making a much better use of their time. Weekly Boarders may also choose to stay for the weekend. Transport service is available to/from CABA.
The Flexi Boarding Program is an option for daily students who are interested in experiencing resident student life, for at least one month.

Our boarding philosophy places great emphasis on the concept of a family community, whilst at the same time promoting individual responsibility.

Our Boarding Facilities.

Living accommodation for all our boarders are situated in the Co-ed Boarding House. Recently refurbished, it has a vibrant atmosphere that is warm and friendly. Girl’s and boy’s living quarters are located independently in the left & right wing of the building with personalised digital access to each area. Boarders share modern, spacious and comfortable bedrooms and will be encouraged to personalise their own space.

They can choose to make use of common mixed spaces such as the reception, the library, a fully equipped common room and for the older students, an ES5 & ES6 forms’ area. Independent boys’ and girls’ living rooms and well equipped kitchen areas are also an option at the Boarding House. Junior and Senior changing rooms are located next to the corresponding bedrooms areas.

Many of the superb facilities at St George’s College outside of the school day are available for Boarding students after school hours. These include extensive playing fields and running tracks, cricket and tennis courts, a fitness gym, open and heated swimming pools amongst others.
