The Bathersby Boarding Village is a home away from home. Individual rooms provide a sanctuary for the boys to call their own. Guided by the values of Faith, Family, Courage and Trust, our boarding program fosters personal growth and challenges boys to be the best version of themselves.

Life at Nudgee is structured around connection and care. Students are part of one of four Houses, each led by a dedicated team including a Head of House, Assistant Heads, and a House Mother, the heart of each residence. Their nurturing presence ensures the boys feel supported, seen, and genuinely cared for every day.

We pride ourselves on building more than routines, we build relationships. The people here are what make Nudgee truly special. Our House Mothers, staff and mentors provide a level of care that creates a deep sense of belonging.”

— Dean of Boarding, Casey Brealy

But the support goes even further. Nudgee’s boarding program integrates academic tutoring, health and wellbeing services, spiritual formation, and recreation, all tailored to the unique needs of boys from the bush. From counsellors to nurses and weekend activity staff, every element is designed to help students thrive holistically.
