New Forest Junior Centre

Accommodation will be provided mostly by parents at the school but also by other families and friends of the school community. This will give you the opportunity to live with an English family and experience their way of life. Where possible we will place you in a family with children of a similar age – but please note this cannot be guaranteed.

Mostly you will share a twin room. This can be with a student of the same or different nationality, according to your wishes. It may also be with an English child from the family.

Your family will provide you with breakfast and evening meal, do your washing and arrange transport to and from the school. Please note that the journey time to school by car will be between 10–30 minutes. In some cases you will be able to walk if the family live close to the school. You will eat a hot lunch at school on school days and a hot supper at school when there is an evening activity. You will get a packed lunch to take with you on the full-day excursion on Saturdays. Sunday is a free day to spend with the family.
