National Boarding Week
This year’s theme, Threads of Connection, beautifully captures the spirit of our boarding communities. Just like threads in a tapestry, the bonds formed between students, staff, and families are what hold our communities together. Each individual contributes their own unique thread—strengthening the collective fabric that fosters personal growth, lifelong friendships, and a true sense of belonging. It’s this interconnectedness that makes boarding more than just a place to live—it makes it a home.
Competitions:
Throughout the week, we’ll be running a variety of fun competitions via our ABSA social media channels, so make sure to follow us and keep an eye out for announcements. There are many prizes to be won!
