Choice Homestay

We're so pleased to have Japanese students visiting to South East Queensland again. They're such a pleasure to host, so very polite and keen to help around the house. Our homestay families always share such great feedback about them.

Due to the recent couple of years without students visiting, we now have space for new homestay families to join our homestay network and we are currently arranging home inspection visits to approve new hosts for study-tour groups arriving late December and early 2023.

Please visit www.choicehomestay.com and express your interest on the homepage contact-form if you're interested in hosting. The website shows the existing 2022 pay rates and lots of other information, and we're happy to answer any questions you may have.

Hosting is such a lovely way to make a big difference to the lives of these young learners 💚

We enjoyed working with Livingstone Christian College in Ormeau again! The Japanese Koriyama group was here for around 2 weeks and enjoyed a range of activities including english lessons/school integration as well as cultural visits to; Tamborine Mountain, Currumbin Bird Sanctuary, Aged Care Facility, Surfers Paradise & Brisbane. Thanks to all our homestay families who accommodated this group. If you're interested in hosting next season please complete the enquiry form on our website at; www.choicehomestay.com

Today we welcomed students from Koriyama High School, Japan. The group will be here for the next week, so if you see some of the students in and around the College, make sure you stop and say hi, showcasing our famous Livingstone Community that we're so proud of.

We placed around 1200 students in over 40 different groups to schools around Gold Coast and Brisbane this season. Please send us any photos to: [email protected] 😊

We would like to thank all our Gold Coast and Brisbane families who helped us succesfully welcome around 1,200 international students this July/Aug season from; Japan, China, Korea & Hong Kong. We can't wait to see you all again next year in the Jan/Feb season! We would love to hear from you if you have any queries - reach out to us on Facebook or at [email protected] if there's anything we can help you with 😊

Thank you Michelle! We are very glad you enjoyed your experience. Can't wait to see you & Dean again next season!
