Facilities/ Student Services

Accommodation

Home stay accommodation can be arranged with approved Christchurch families. This is highly recommended while you are studying English because it is a good way to practice English and learn about New Zealand customs and lifestyles. Some students prefer to live in shared rental accommodation (a 'flat'). Flatting with New Zealanders is also an effective way to improve your English and to develop your independence.
