Win $10,000 off boarding school fees for a year!! Share your stories now!

We know the heart it takes to send a child to boarding school - the hope, the sacrifice, the long drives, and the belief in something bigger than distance.

That’s why we’ve created the $10,000 Boarding School Gift: to support families who are already on the journey and those still searching for the right school.

To enter, we’d love you to answer one heartfelt question:

What does a boarding school education mean to your family?
How could it open doors, shape your child’s future, and help keep the spirit of the bush alive?

This is a story-based competition, not one of chance.
Your words matter. Your journey matters.

To enter the draw, participants must complete all the following steps during the competition period:

⭐ Follow The Boarding School Collective on Instagram, Facebook, OR LinkedIn.
⭐ Share the official competition post to your story, mention in your story, and tag a boarding family friend in the comments.
⭐ Complete the entry form and in 200 words or less, tell us what a boarding school education means to your family - how could it open doors, shape your child’s future, and keep the spirt of the bush alive?
⭐ Enter via the link in bio or at www.boardingschoolco.com.au.
⭐ Subscribe to The Boarding School Collective and remain subscribed for 12 months.

Competition opens Monday 17 November and entries close Friday 5 December 11.59pm.

Please note: Only one entry per family is permitted. Entries that do not meet all requirements will be deemed invalid.

Full T&Cs: https://boardingschoolco.com.au/boarding-school-gift/boarding-school-gift-terms-conditions/.

We can’t wait to read what boarding means to you, and to stand beside one family with a $10,000 gift toward boarding school fees.
