At the moment we are receiving many beautiful requests from international students who would love to join our amazing school community for a specific time frame or long term.

Unfortunately, we can only accept them, if we are able to find wonderful families like you, who can provide a loving, caring and warm home for them.

Hosting an international student can provide your family with a taste of

new cultures, new people and lifestyles.

In return for your hospitality, you will receive a financial contribution of

$340 per student per week to cover the costs involved in adding an extra person to your household.

If you are interested and would like to get more information please contact our Homestay Coordinator, Caroline Schlebusch-Bruemmer (rhhomestay@raphaelhouse.school.nz). ‘
