Timaru Boys' and Timaru Girls', in conjunction with the South Canterbury Aero Club, are very pleased to offer an aviation course to students.

Students have the opportunity to attain a Private Pilot Licence (PPL) in fixed wing (aeroplane) while studying for their national academic qualifications. The timetable structure at Timaru Boys' and Girls' will allow students to have normal classes and aviation theory during the course of the school day. After school or weekends the students will gain practical flying experience under the care of the South Canterbury Aero Club.

The 10 week aviation course is an introduction aviation course which includes three flights and also looks at all the aviation sectors from engineering to the control tower as a career path.
