The Westminster Boarding Experience

With a dedicated team of experienced, professional and supportive staff, modern facilities, and a welcoming ‘family’ atmosphere, Westminster School has steadily grown to become one of South Australia’s largest co-educational boarding schools. We welcome Boarding students from Years 7 to 12 from a diverse range of backgrounds and boast a large population of country students.

Student Wellbeing

Within boarding, we aim to maintain a family atmosphere. Guidelines for behaviour and House rules are based mainly on mutual courtesy and respect, and the promotion of safety for all students. Our Westminster Boarding program aims to establish a community of happy, successful, young people who are achieving more than they thought possible.

At Westminster School, we have a tradition of developing strong and often enduring relationships with, not only our Boarders but with their families and friends. Such a culture comes from treating Boarders as individuals, dealing with issues as if they involved members of one’s own family, and an ability to consider matters in perspective. It is very important that we establish a relationship with the family. Just as each student will be part of our Boarding House family, we hope that their families will feel welcome and take the opportunity to keep in regular contact, particularly if there are any queries, problems, or concerns.
