INNOVATION IN PRACTICE “ “As regional families face rising costs and geographic barriers to quality education, boarding schools remain a vital bridge for country students to thrive academically and personally. Across
Australia, most boarders come from rural and remote communities, and schools play a strong role in social and economic life, including future agricultural leadership. Boarding schools integrate academic tutoring, health and wellbeing services, spiritual formation, and recreation, helping shape the next generation of leaders who will strengthen regional and rural economies and communities.” Scott Thomson, Principal of St Joseph's Nudgee College.
