English, with the beach on your doorstep
Our Sunshine Coast programs are based in Maroochydore, on the banks of the Maroochy River. Students stay in self-contained apartments, walk to the shops and cafés at Sunshine Plaza, and are a short drive from some of Queensland's best-known beaches and attractions.
It's a different rhythm to the Farmstay — more urban, more coastal, and built around getting students speaking English in everyday situations: ordering lunch, catching a bus, asking for directions, chatting on the beach.

What our students say
“My daughter had never seen the ocean before this trip. She learned to surf and learned to order her own lunch in English in the same week.”

“Studying in the morning and swimming in the afternoon kept me motivated in a way that a full day of classes never would have. I looked forward to every day.”
— Seo-yeon Lim

“The activity programme was genuinely varied — water park, wildlife park, beach days. My son never once said he was bored, which is a first.”
