Families from rural, regional and remote areas of NSW have been an integral part of the Tara school community since its foundation in 1897.
"We value the commitment, ability and the exceptional contribution rural girls bring to the life of the school," Tara Anglican School for Girls principal Susan Middlebrook said.
"Ensuring the continuation of this strong link between Tara and country families is a priority for us.
"We are creating more possibilities for rural girls to take advantage of the Tara experience no matter where they live."
Boarding at Tara's Eggleton House provides a supportive community for rural girls while enabling them to build independence and life skills.
"Tara has girls from Bourke, Marra Creek, Dunedoo, Warren, Orange, Scone, the Southern Highlands and other areas of regional Australia, enabling us to offer a community of girls with similar life experiences," Mrs Middlebrook said.
"Parents can have confidence the Christian pastoral care provided within our boarding house family and wider school community will ensure their daughter is safe and happy.
"We offer boarding from Year 5 in a family friendly atmosphere where everyone is known and valued.
"During recent visits to rural families throughout NSW, families shared with us what they value about boarding at Tara.
"High on their list of priorities was Tara's position at North Parramatta, allowing for easy access over the mountains, while providing a city experience safely located on 12 hectares of green space.
"Our proximity as neighbours to The King's School also offers added convenience.
"Rural families appreciate the academic and extracurricular opportunities available as each girl is encouraged to be resilient, responsible and caring of others."
Tara is an International Baccalaureate World School, empowering students to be talented, global citizens as they realise their potential.
