Boarding at Stanford
Boarding schools offer a positive platform for social development and individual growth within a secure and structured environment where individuals are recognised and nurtured for who they are. Stanford Lake College boasts a day scholar house and five boarding houses, where each house is supervised by a senior house parent who has a residence attached to the boarding house. International exchange students add a different and distinctive flavour to the boarding houses.
Seventy percent of learners at Stanford Lake College are boarders. The boarding houses are modern and comfortable and every effort is made to ensure that your child’s time at the College is both happy and productive. The day scholar house allows day scholars a place to relax and do homework while waiting for their transport. Stanford Lake College offers both weekly and termly boarding opportunities. Weekend activities are arranged for termly boarders.
​
We have a full-time Sanatorium Sister living on campus and a consultant Doctor when required.

Lakeside
Lakeside is the smallest of the three girls’ boarding houses, but it is by no means the smallest in character or personality. Named for its spectacular view of our lake, Lakeside is a home away from home for our weekly boarders. As our colour purple represents, we are a house that promotes compassion, understanding, individuality, creativity and positive attitudes.
​
The common room is the heart of the house and our “Lakeside Ladies” love to meet here to discuss their day, catch up on news from the weekend or watch a movie. Lakeside is run by two committed house parents who ensure that the rhythms and routines of the house are always to the benefit of our young ladies’ development.
