St Patrick’s International Academy provides boarding facility for girls and boys from Form 1 to 6. Our boarding house welcomes students into a happy, comfortable and friendly environment. Boarders are cared for by the Boarding Matron and Boarding Master. All boarders are required to leave the boarding house over the mid-term breaks, on certain closed weekends and school holidays. Boarders are not allowed to leave the property without written permission. Parents/ Guardians are allowed to visit but permission must be granted by the boarding Master/Matron.

 

        Boarding school prepares students with many skills needed in later life: it encourages independence, promotes responsibilities, develops respect for others in a communal-style living space and builds self-confidence.

​

 

 

Our main aim is the happiness of our girls and boys in the boarding house. We offer a “home away from home” environment and every attempt is made to help the students feel part of a family.

 

 

• Boys’ boarding is accommodated with 11 bedrooms.

• Girls’ boarding is accommodated in 10 bedrooms.

• Well-appointed boarding facilities, bedrooms, study, recreational and bathroom facilities.

• Balanced, nutritious meals prepared by experienced chefs are served in our air conditioned dining room. Meals are served ‘buffet style’ so that girls and boys may help themselves.
