Facilities

Your child enjoys modern, well-appointed and comfortable facilities at Narrogin Residential College. Major upgrades and extensions in the past few years have made the College an exceptional facility for boarding.

Accommodation

Every student has their own individual room with a bed, desk for studying, wardrobe, and shelves for displaying personal items. Students provide their own bedding and doona.

Boys and girls are accommodated in separate dormitory buildings, in two different parts of the college. 

Our dormitories are very comfortable with ducted heating and cooling. For safety reasons, heaters and blankets are not permitted in the students’ rooms.

Common rooms

Each of our college girls’ year groups has its own common room with a fridge, TV and lounge where they can hang out together.

The college boys have separate common rooms in their dormitory buildings, where two year groups share a common room.

There is also a big common room for both boys and girls where they can mix over the year groups and participate in supervised activities.

The viewpoint is from the second floor of a building, looking out over an open area to the floor below. The far wall is filled with a painted mural of the silhouette of a motorbike rider jumping over a hill at night. The rider is shown in front of a brightly coloured moon and rings of light in reds and yellows. Around the moonshine is a dark blue night sky filled with stars. Painted on the wall to the right are the words "Reach for the stars" and an arrow pointing to the mural. On the ground floor of the building is a tv, a couch and a desk. The windows show a view of trees outside.The Year 12 boys and girls have access to toasters, microwaves and coffee/tea facilities.

Students have all their meals together in the large dining room. There are two separate well-resourced computer labs, one each for juniors and seniors, with computers networked to the school.

We are pleased to showcase our large murals which have transformed the college boarding space to create an engaging environment that is welcoming to boarders. Some of this artwork can be viewed at Boarding Training Australia.
