Learning in Residence differs from most traditional dormitory environments. Wesley’s contemporary and beautifully designed facilities cater to a vibrant population of over 80 boarders, providing the optimal mix of privacy and communal space.
Learning in Residence comprises eight two-storey residences for girls and boys, each housing up to 16 students and one staff member. Students are allocated to one of the eight residences according to gender and year level.
The residences
Each architecturally-designed residence features air-conditioned twin-share rooms with ensuite for Years 7 to 11 students, and single rooms for Year 12 students.
The bedrooms provide ample space for private study, sleep and socialisation. They can also access the library for study periods, supervised by residential and campus staff.
Common areas include an open-plan lounge featuring a gas fireplace, kitchenette, and private and group study areas.
Each residence features a kitchenette with a microwave, kettle, sink and fridge.
