Boarding at Scots College is a very rewarding and enjoyable experience. Students gain a number of important life skills. They develop greater independence and maturity. Their organisational skills expand. They learn to manage their time, and importantly learn to live with others and support each other.

Scots College offers five and seven day boarding in Gibb House. Boarders are hosted by families in the community for two weekends each term and during the holidays. These home stays are arranged by the College. Weekly boarders depart on Friday afternoon, returning on Sunday evening.

At Scots College we believe a boarding house is like a home away from home. An ideal home should be safe, supportive, encouraging, guiding, motivating and an enjoyable place to be. Gibb House is exactly that.
