A Christian residential community for undergraduate tertiary students
Barneys Student Residences consist of two welcoming student accommodation communities located in Glebe, associated with St Barnabas Anglican Church, Broadway. Our vision is to support undergraduate tertiary students who are new to Sydney by helping them form lasting friendships, grow in faith and joy, and become equipped to serve God’s kingdom with purpose and confidence.
Only five minutes from Sydney University, a short walk to UTS and Notre Dame, and close to Central Station, we offer two convenient student accommodation locations in the heart of Glebe.
Students living in Barneys residences are obliged to abide by our Residential Agreement, Policies and Community Rules.
