Everyone who goes to New Zealand for high school must be very concerned about the dormitory problem of high school students studying in New Zealand. At present, most high schools in New Zealand are public high schools, and local residents attend them free of charge. Like most high schools, there is no dormitory. Only a few schools provide dormitories, but the scale is small. I suggest you live in a host family. If accompanied by parents, you can rent a house near the school.

New Zealand high school dormitory

High schools in New Zealand are mostly public schools, which are free for local citizens, and all New Zealand citizens have accommodation in the local area. Therefore, most middle schools in New Zealand have no school buildings, and only a few schools have boarding facilities, and the scale is small, which cannot fully meet the demand.

Most international students live in New Zealand host families supervised by the school. The distance between the host family and the school is often limited to 2- 3 bus stops, which is probably no more than half an hour's drive. For students accompanied by their parents, they can choose to rent a house with their parents.

Other ways of accommodation in New Zealand high schools

1, b&B. This is a family living in New Zealand. It provides a separate room and study, including breakfast and dinner, and lunch is provided on weekends and holidays. Students and every member of the host family take part in various family activities. Boarding at home can help students improve their English quickly and understand the life of New Zealanders, especially for middle school students who have just left home independently.

You can choose a host family through the international student service center of the school or through an intermediary. There are advertisements in the school. The first-year students here are usually arranged by the school to live directly in their local homes. These families are all selected by the school and are responsible for students' accommodation. The English name is homestay. One-on-one accommodation with local people is very helpful for learning the language, getting familiar with the environment and understanding the local customs, but the price is relatively high.

2. Student hotel. One is usually located in or near the school, single room or double room. There are public fitness facilities and swimming pools. Most student dormitories provide students with three meals a day, and some schools do not provide lunch on weekends.

3. Rent a house. This situation is aimed at students accompanied by their parents. Parents can rent an apartment near the school, and the rental price depends on their choice of house.
