Welcoming

Homestay Families

The Homestay is a great cultural exchange between the Local Host (Homestay) Family and the Visiting International Student, who lives with the homestay family while studying in Australia.

  • We are looking for families that have a genuine interest in other cultures and nationalities, and also like to welcome the students into their homes as a ‘new’ member of their family.
  • We have international students from all over the world that come to various institutions on the Gold Coast. They could attend TAFE, University, High School, or be part of a Tour Group that visits our theme parks. If you think that you can provide these visitors with an authentic Australian family experience, we would love to hear from you.
  • Families that host students receive a payment which varies according to the package the student requires. The package could involve different numbers of meals, transportation, or multiple students staying. Our families are always provided with full details regarding the student, the time period for their stay and all transportation, dietary requirements etc prior to committing to an acceptance. Families have the option to accept the student or not.
  • We offer a 24-hour, 7-days a week Emergency Support Service, for the students and host families. We believe that a happy family supported by us, will provide the BEST care for their student.
