A Caring and Connected Boarding House in Adelaide – Discover Walford
Choosing a boarding house in Adelaide is a big decision for families. At Walford, we understand that girls need a place where they feel safe, supported, and inspired. The Walford boarding house offers just that – a warm, inclusive environment that feels like a second home.
Why Choose a Boarding House in Adelaide?
Adelaide is known for its peaceful neighbourhoods, strong school community, and easy lifestyle. For students coming from regional areas or overseas, living in a boarding house in Adelaide gives them access to quality education and new opportunities – without the hustle and bustle of a bigger city.
At Walford, our boarding students enjoy the best of both worlds: the quiet charm of Adelaide and the vibrancy of school life, all within walking distance of the city and public transport.
