GENERAL BOARDING INFORMATION

THE BOARDING HOUSE IS IN THE HEART OF PLC SYDNEY, SITUATED IN THE CENTRE OF THE SENIOR SCHOOL GROUNDS. SINCE ITS INCEPTION IN 1888, PLC SYDNEY HAS ALWAYS PROVIDED A BOARDING FACILITY.

The first three enrolments were boarders and their names label each wing of the Boarding House today. The house has a long, varied history and has been in the present location since 1890.

PLC Sydney is located in the inner west of Sydney, Australia’s most vibrant city. Because the city is a short train trip from the College, boarders can easily enjoy Sydney’s festivities and events for many weekend activities.

PLC Sydney has a proud history of welcoming students from a variety of cultural backgrounds and this commitment continues to provide the College with a rich, diverse learning environment.

The Boarding House has accommodation for approximately sixty-five boarders from the city, country and overseas. The house is home to girls from Year 7 through to Year 12 who are either fulltime or weekly boarders. The students live in shared rooms with the exception of Year 12 boarders who have single rooms. There are three common living areas, providing the boarders with somewhere to relax, watch television (including DVDs) and have fun. There are also sewing facilities and games available.
