Who will look after the students?

Mackintosh International College ( Australia ) has 13 years experience in College education and Homestay. Current students enjoy the exchange of ideas and cultures while staying in a traditional “Aussie” home with a family that has been thoroughly inspected and approved. College staff visit homes to personally inspect homestay families and require that all homestsy families have a Blue Card.

What is a Blue Card?

A blue card is issued by the Commission for Children and Young People and Child Guardian. The Commission conducts the Working with Children Check to determine whether a person is eligible for a blue card. If a person is considered eligible they are issued with a positive notice letter and a blue card.

What can we do on the Gold Coast?

You name it; we can do it….literally. As one of the major tourist destinations in the world, our safe and friendly environment with warm tropical oceans and beaches caters to visitors from all parts of the world. Students visiting the coast choose to do boat rides, whale watching (May to October), 4WD tours, golf, tennis, fishing, rainforest tours and trekking, wild life sanctuaries, theme parks and more.
