For overseas students in Australia without their parents and under the age of 18, the School is required to approve all people you stay overnight with – whether that is a friend or a relative.

If you wish to stay overnight with someone during your time at the School, you need to advise your Head of House/Unit, your parents and the Overseas Student Manager, so that your parents approval can be confirmed and the School’s approval process can be arranged. 

Please do this as soon as possible prior to your intended visit, so that the approvals can be arranged and you are able to visit as you wish.  Please note that with less than four days notice of your intended visit, the visit may not be able to take place.  GGS will do its best to support these arrangements, however we need you to be timely.
