Homestay Families

Lisa Garrett —

We believe that having a welcoming, inclusive and kind homestay family is important for helping you integrate into New Zealand life. We work very closely with our host families to ensure that you are safe and happy. We take time to choose the perfect family for you.

Our host families and school staff will meet you at the airport:

You will be part of the family and you will be invited to join them on family outings. Yumika loved to go walking with her family.

Your host family will enjoy taking you on weekend outings to explore our city and surrounding areas. — Image by: Lisa Garrett
