Dear Parents, Whānau, and Caregivers,

St Thomas' is looking for kind, caring host families for our international students who want to study at the college. Our homestay payment is $315.00 per week in 2024.

The length of stay for the students varies from 10 weeks, 1 year, to multiple years till graduation from high school.

This is a wonderful opportunity to connect and learn about another culture, with the possibility of making life-long connections. Your family will really become their home away from home and make a great impact on their lives.

Our starting requirements are:
- Living within a reasonable distance of St Thomas'
- A furnished separate bedroom for student
- Provide 3 meals plus snacks a day
- English being the first language spoken at home
- Willing to provide support and care for students

Please get in touch with me if you are interested or have any questions.
