Boarding

Fostering a profound sense of belonging.

Deeply rooted in the philosophy of its founder, the Boarding House at St.George’s School in Cologne serves as an extended family, fostering a profound sense of belonging that endures well beyond the students' graduation.

Nestled in the heart of our bustling campus, our boarding house offers a welcoming home from home for boys and girls aged 14 and above to immerse themselves in a transformative living experience. Here, in a wonderfully diverse, multi-cultural community, students embrace the opportunity to forge lifelong friendships while building their academic and personal skills.

Our purpose-built boarding facilities are equipped with all the essentials for comfortable living and blend modern comforts with a homely atmosphere. Whether as full-time residents or weekly boarders, students enjoy access to a range of recreational and learning amenities, from indoor lounges equipped with snooker and table tennis tables, to outdoor spaces for leisure and relaxation. With Wi-Fi connectivity available throughout, staying connected is easy.

The shared living spaces and close-knit boarding community allow students from different cultural backgrounds to enjoy the camaraderie of new friends and learn independence within a supportive environment. Our boarders are integrated seamlessly into school life and in the evenings and on weekends, enjoy a fun and busy schedule of activities.

Under the guidance of dedicated boarding tutors and support staff, students are empowered to take ownership of their academic journey while receiving the nurturing care that mirrors the support of a family away from home. Prioritising the wellbeing and happiness of every boarder, our pastoral team works in tandem with academic colleagues to ensure every student can develop and thrive.

Our overarching goal is to cultivate a global perspective and instil qualities of resilience, confidence, and adaptability in our students, equipping them with the tools to flourish as they progress through life. Whether pursuing academic excellence, entrepreneurial ventures, or personal passions, our boarding house serves as a springboard for success and fulfillment in all their endeavors.
