Homestay Accommodation for New Zealand International Students

Informationa about Homestay Accommodation

The greatest opportunity to practice your English outside the school environment is by living with a friendly New Zealand host family. You will meet new friends and learn something about New Zealand Culture in a safe, friendly home. You will have someone to talk to at the end of your studies and be able to use your listening skills and conversational skills in a real-life situation. It's also nice to have someone who can guide you on homework assignments.

What to Expect from your Homestay

You will get your own comfortable private room (furnished with a minimum of a single bed, dresser, and study desk). Meals are also provided. You can purchase your own car, or use the city bus system, which will be located close to your home-stay.

Home-stay families are specially screened for their cultural sensitivity toward foreign students. They will become your family while in New Zealand.

All families will be screened to meet the Ministry of Education's Code of Practice for the Pastoral Care of International Students.
