Brother and sister, Will and Emma Benham are both boarders at The Armidale School (TAS), where they’re enjoying a range of opportunities at the same time as carving out their own interests and identities.

Will and Emma, along with mum, Pip, share what it means to be able to enjoy the boarding experience knowing there’s someone to lean on close at hand.

Speak with the staff at TAS at the Tamworth Boarding Schools Expo on 26 and 27 July. They’ll be there along with 30 other schools from Sydney, regional NSW and Queensland. The event is free, you’re welcome to come back as many times as you like while our doors are open, and you can find all the details about who, what and where on this website.
