Otorohanga College is tomorrow joining the roll-call of schools shutting its boarding facilities.

The Waikato school's board is putting it down to a lack of Education Ministry financial support.

Losses over the past four years have totalled 600-thousand-dollars.

It's also well below break-even for enrolment, with only about 25 students signed up to board next year.

College Board Chair, Duncan Coull told Kerre Woodham numbers don't look likely to improve.
