The Boarding (CA ISR) has a capacity for 40 students and caters for both girls and boys in the age bracket of 8 to 18 years. It provides a relaxed learning and recreational atmosphere. All activities are well supervised. The staff is experienced, highly motivated and enjoys working with children. Specifically, there is an activity coordinator whose main responsibility is to program and organize activities that enable children to be constructively occupied. The Coast Academy enjoys a family atmosphere and follows a mentor system, which enables each child to be monitored closely and allows for greater personal contact.
The Boarding Information notes a catering department with a well-selected menu. Boarding rooms are spacious, bright, and self-contained, with separate rooms for boys and girls.
