Homestay VS Tuckshop

While not a system update, we thought you might enjoy this mildly amusing story about the surging Homestay industry in Brisbane. One of our neighbours recently came over to visit as she had heard that we were developing a Homestay Network. She was very interested to enquire about the possibilities of Homestay and said that she found out about it through a dispute at a local school. Apparently this “dispute” had involved something of a mass exodus of the school’s tuckshop lady staff after word got around that they could each host a single international student in Homestay for the same amount that the school was paying them to prepare the lunches for 500+ children each week. Needless to say it can’t have been a very difficult decision, and from all reports these placements are doing very well. AHN would like to apologise in advance to any other schools with an underpaid tuckshop staff. Viva la revolution!
