Are you a student between the ages of 13 and 18 attending a New Zealand High School to improve your English language and experience a different culture? Going to school is something you have no choice about, but we’d like to bet you’re keen to explore New Zealand during you time here.
Touring New Zealand with other international students will be one of the best things you do in New Zealand. Sharing amazing experiences with like minded people forms memories and friendships to last your whole life…
Day and weekend tours (Auckland, Rotorua and Waitomo, Coromandel and Tauranga - geysers and glow-worms, silica terraces and mud pools, black water rafting, white water rafting, horse-trekking, blokarting, surfing, White Island Rangitoto Island, Tiritiri Matangi and more)
Long weekends in the Bay of Islands, Tongariro National Park or Wellington - sand-boarding, skiing, Te Papa, Waitangi Treaty house and more
Tours of the North Island including all the choices above and more
Tours of the South Island: Christchurch, Franz Josef, Wanaka, Queenstown, Milford Sound, glacier treks, Mt Cook National Park, penguins and seals, whale watching,luge runs and more...
And, on tour, we’re very good about giving you lots of information without you really noticing so you get to understand what really makes New Zealand tick. We don’t do it with our weekend and holiday tours, but we can go all the way and link some really serious (but always fun) learning to the curriculum you follow at school at home or in New Zealand. Your parents and teachers will love this part.
Touring New Zealand with other international students will be one of the best things about your time in New Zealand. Sharing amazing experiences will form memories and friendships to last your whole life. You’ll change the way you look at the world!
Code of Practice for the Pastoral Care of International Students
Your school has to sign The Code of Practice for the Pastoral Care of International Students . This is very clear about where, how and with whom secondary students can travel away from their home-stay families.
Learning Journeys has its own, very fussy Health and Safety plans. Our Qualmark status guarantees that and so does the fact that lots of schools already trust us with their international students (Tell your parents and international deans about this part. It will make a serious difference to how they react when you ask if you can do some of the things suggested above).
