HOME AWAY FROM HOME
Home-away-from-home experience
Westville Boys’ High School prides itself on a unique boarding experience. Our five modern boarding homes provide a warm, safe and secure setting for our boys. Our focus is to ensure that all our boarders feel that they are living in a “home-away-from-home”.
The Westville experience also offers parents the unique opportunity of allowing their sons to board in close proximity to where they live, unlike most other larger boarding establishments.
This allows boys who opt for weekly boarding to have valuable quality time with their families, and allows parents greater opportunity to support their sons’ extra-curricular activities.
Boarders and boarder masters
Each of our five homes caters for approximately 25-30 boarders with two to three boarder masters. The advantage of small group boarding under close supervision and guidance is preferred by Westville Boys’ High to ensure a nurturing environment.
Facilities
Our 5 modern houses have the following:
- Swimming Pool
- Lounge area
- Kitchen Area
- Access to the gym
- WiFi
- TV
- Communal bathrooms
BE nurturing
Sound habits and inter-personal skills are fostered in the company of peers and senior boys. Friendships formed in this way help our boys develop a sense of well-being and confidence which larger, more impersonal boarding schools are not always able to achieve.

Dear Mr Steele
Thank you so much for all that you do for the boys.With the stop, start, stop situation I can just imagine what you and the staff have been through in having to constantly change timetables , classrooms, etc.
I admire you all for how you have overcome all the obstacles in your way.
For me as a parent, I was so happy that they got to go back to school yesterday – I literally got my son back!! He was so excited when I picked him up, could not wait to tell me the events of the day, mixing with his friends, the sport coaches, his beloved teacher. I actually had a tear in my eye. My gosh I am so happy to see him with that happy look again.
I am so grateful to you all.Thank you is a small word but gosh I mean it from the bottom of my heart.
We have the most amazing school.The Grade 11 boys and matric boys go out of their way to help and motivate our Gr 8 boys. My child speaks so much about them. He chatted with a friend over the weekend and he was telling them how our matrics and Grade 11 boys motivate them etc. and his friend could not believe it. At their school the Gr 11 and 12 boys ignore the Gr 8 boys. How sad. Our school has incredible leadership qualities.
So once again a very big THANK YOU from me.
(A WBHS Parent)
