Homestay families wanted - for Marsden International students
Have you been considering hosting an international student? We are seeking to increase the number of available homes. It is essential that English is the first language of the host family. Marsden has an international staff team who will support you to ensure that hosting is a rewarding experience for your family. We are seeking families who will include their student in all aspects of family life, provide all meals and a separate bedroom with space to study. Payment is $300 per week. Families will be police vetted. For more information or to express your interest please contact Marsden Homestay Manager Lyn Brooks, 021 054 3590 or email lyn.brooks@icloud.com
