Epsom House-Boarding at EGGS

Our boarding facility, Epsom House, is part of Epsom Girls Grammar School's long tradition of providing access to an excellent single-sex education for young women from overseas and rural New Zealand. Epsom House is located on the school grounds and provides full accommodation for boarders, seven days a week.
