Education Queensland International (EQI) develops and promotes programs for international students with a secure and welcoming place to live and practise their English language skills in a real home setting. Most students attend high school but the length of their stay in Queensland will vary.
A homestay host must provide:
a clean, safe and friendly home
private bedroom and suitable storage space for their clothes and personal belongings
More information may be found on the EQI website - (Become an EQI Homestay Host) or by contacting the International Liaison Officer at Redlynch State College.
All members of the host family over the age of 18 must have a blue card clearance which is organised through the school. More information can be found on the Blue Card Services website.
