Boarding at St Mark's College

At St Mark’s College we realise the importance of home. 
Family, friends, sport and community make us who we are. That’s why we offer a unique 5-day boarding experience, allowing our students to focus on school during the week, returning home each weekend.

Boarding schools are special and boarding at St Mark’s College is unique. As the only 5-day boarding facility in South Australia, we offer that balance between boarding and home. 

St Mark’s opens up countless opportunities. Students form lifelong friendships with students from around the state, while also building meaningful and respectful relationships with our staff. 

Boarding at St Mark’s provides students with the support to develop productive study habits, the chance to make new friendships and develop in self-confidence, independence and a tolerance and understanding of others. Girls and boys can take full advantage of the breadth of St Mark’s wide ranging activities and learning experiences whilst living in a caring, structured and well supervised environment.  

Our core focus centres around student wellbeing, and achieving personal best, while ensuring our boarding environment feels safe and students are cared for.  We all come together from wide-ranging backgrounds and cultures, which is what makes living and learning in our Boarding House so unique.  

Boarding House Facilities

Our new, modern boarding facility opened in 2025 and features a recreation and dining room, 33 bedroom-pods, and an outdoor leisure area.

We encourage interested families to enrol as soon as possible.
