We have had five students from South Korea and three students from Ikubunkan School in Japan, along with several short term students planning on returning in 2018 – a young Japanese student plans on returning in Term 2 next year, as does a short term student from Hong Kong and another Thai student is exploring the option of returning.

The students have been busy while here, with a trip to Oamaru to see the Penguins, a trip around South Canterbury, ice skating, concluding with a night down in beautiful Queenstown where they had a good look around and thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

Thank you to the host families for opening up their homes to these students who have had a wonderful experience whilst in New Zealand.
