HOST AN INTERNATIONAL STUDENT
Homes are urgently needed for students arriving to Wellington High School in January 2023.
In particular homes for boys from Germany (year and half year placements) and boys from Japan for term 1 only.
The 2023 homestay fee will be $320 per week.
We are looking for homestay families who are inclusive, caring, supportive and willing to share their home and Kiwi life with a student. Visiting students want to experience day to day life with a New Zealand family and to feel a part of the family.
Open up the world for your family and be a part of enriching and transforming lives.

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
58.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15% ... It is complicated
