Each year I go through the successes in my boardgame collection with students at school. This will support the majority of students in a high school and most classes that I have introduced them to. If you were looking to set up a boardgame collection for a library or department, you wouldn't go far wrong.
None have a huge ruleset and can be self taught by most groups (other than the adult ones at the bottom).

Staff often ask me how I hear about games and where I get them from. Stand up and sit down on youtube is a great channel for board game information, as is the hottest list on boardgamegeek.com. Student favourites are marked with a *. The favourite by far marked with **.
Most games can be bought locally in Perth from Tactics or Gamesworld at a premium. Harder to find games can be found from Milsims.com.au in Melbourne, Amazon online or sometimes Gamesempire.com.au.
