Boarding School Life

SBAA is regarded as an integral part of the School as it provides accommodation and therefore the opportunity for learners to experience the specific advantages that SBAA Day & Boarding school provides. The Boarding is in a modern complex, more like a hotel facility than a boarding school, and is our pride and joy.
The boarding accommodates both girls and boys boarders ( Each have their separate wing). The dormitory has 15 washrooms on each floor with an A1 mirrors mounted on the walls.
For boarders, the Boarding is a home-away-from-home that seeks to assist them to achieve peace of mind and to provide them with an opportunity to develop socially in the company of other learners of similar ages. There are also opportunities to develop sporting and cultural skills and to achieve a high level of each learners’ desire.
