Boarding, Uniform and Food

Daily life details and school culture

Boarding Arrangements

Some international students live with a parent in New Zealand, but many stay with homestay families in the Gulf Harbour area. Homestay families are police vetted and handpicked to suit each student's needs, and a weekly allowance is provided to cover living expenses.

Uniform Requirement

Uniform is compulsory for all students and must be worn correctly at all times. The College uses Summer and Winter uniforms for both girls and boys, plus a burgundy-blue PE kit; changeover dates apply. The Uniform Shop sells uniform items.

Food Options

Lunch is provided through a school lunch delivery service (ezlunch). The weekly menu includes sushi on Mondays–Wednesdays and Go Deli options on Thursdays and Fridays, with orders placed online by 9am for delivery at the school; payments are processed through MyKindo.

House System

Wentworth College uses a traditional three-house system: McDonald, Findlay and Fleming. Students participate in inter-house competitions and tutor groups, with House leadership roles and a year-round house activity and fundraising program.

Governance and Ownership

Wentworth College is governed by a private Board of Trustees and operates as a Charitable Trust. The Founding Document guides governance decisions and underpins the school's values and strategic direction.
