How do you research Rotary Residential College Perth? Treat this page as orientation. Rotary Residential College Perth is listed as a co-ed boarding campus at Perth in WA, with a published Rotary residential college (not a single school) affiliation. Founded year, year levels and the official website below are public facts we could verify at the time of writing. Houses open, pause and change year levels — ask admissions whether the house still boards the year you need.
What this listing is not: a league table, a fee quote, or a promise that a place exists. Sibling campuses with similar names in other states are different schools. Use the official website, then request this year’s boarding handbook and the current tuition-plus-boarding schedule. If the student would enrol from overseas, confirm CRICOS registration on the government register, not on this directory.
This listing preserves a historical boardingschools.com.au URL. Rotary Residential College Perth has been described as a residential community for country students who attend various Perth day schools, rather than as a school with its own classrooms.
That distinction matters. Enrolment, if the college is operating, is a two-step process: a school place plus a residential place. Confirm current status, eligibility and fees with the college or with Rotary sources in Perth. This site does not invent an address or a price.

Before you contact Rotary Residential College Perth: a research checklist
A directory profile can tell you where a school is and what kind of boarding it lists. It cannot tell you whether the house suits your child this year. These are the questions we suggest every family puts to admissions in writing, so the answers can be compared side by side with other schools on your shortlist.
- Boarding years and places. Which year levels currently board, which entry years have the most places, and how the waitlist works.
- Full or weekly board. Which nights are included, what happens on closed weekends and exeats, and whether occasional or casual boarding is offered. See weekly vs full boarding.
- House culture. Ask how boys’ and girls’ houses are separated, how weekend activities are shared, and whether siblings can board on the same campus. Ask how many boarders typically stay in on a weekend.
- Pastoral care. Who is on duty overnight, how health and wellbeing are handled, and how the house communicates with parents. Our homesickness guide covers what good support looks like.
- Current fee schedule. Request this year’s tuition, boarding, levies and extras in writing — this directory does not reprint dollar figures. Read how boarding fees work.
- Financial help. Ask about scholarships and bursaries, and — if you live in a remote area — whether families commonly claim the Australian Government’s Assistance for Isolated Children payments.
- Travel. Term dates, airport or coach transfers, and how students travel home from Perth and regional WA.
- Applications. Deadlines, interviews, reports and testing. Our application guide walks through the usual steps.

Due diligence
Checking Rotary Residential College Perth with official sources
Before you shortlist any boarding school, it is worth confirming a few things with the bodies that regulate it rather than relying on marketing material or directories, including this one. Non-government schools in WA are registered through WA Department of Education (non-government school regulation), which publishes information on registration and compliance. Ask Rotary Residential College Perth how its boarding program is governed, which staff supervise boarders overnight and at weekends, and how it applies the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations.
Many schools also refer to the Australian Standard for boarding (AS 5725) and to guidance from the Australian Boarding Schools Association. If your child would study on a student visa, check that the school appears on the CRICOS register for the courses you need. Fees, places and scholarship terms change each year, so request the current schedule directly from the school and compare like with like using our guide to how boarding fees work.
