Esperance Anglican Community School, the sole boarding school in our system, offers a distinctive student experience on the stunning edge of the Southern Ocean in Esperance, Western Australia. Here, students find a home away from home, embracing a unique blend of academic life and coastal living.
Days often begin with the refreshing option of an early morning beach walk, surf, or swim, with some students even taking the chance to throw in a fishing line before heading to breakfast and commencing their school day.
After school, students can dip into the various activities that await them back in the Boarding House. Whether it’s a swim in the local pool, club sports practice, a game of footy on the top oval, or a run along the beach, there’s always something active to look forward to. The games room also offers a fun retreat, with options like table tennis, pool, and air hockey.
Weekends often involve heading back to the family farm to help, a nod to the students’ traditional heritage. When not on the farm, they can enjoy exploring local highlights such as Cape Le Grand, participating in fishing and surfing clinics, climbing Frenchman Peak, visiting the Sunday markets, or joining in a Sunday BBQ and movie night.
Boarding is more than just accommodation—it’s about becoming part of a family, sharing adventures, and building lasting connections that extend well beyond graduation.
