Homestay Families Needed
We have a fantastic group of international students arriving at the start of Term 3, mainly from Italy and China. The students have excellent English Language.
If you have a spare room, please consider becoming a homestay family. International students help us create a diverse and vibrant school community and provide a valuable global perspective in our classes. Our international students and you!
Receive great support from our international team at Wellington College. International students need their own room and three meals each day.
Host families receive $300 each week. Please email Kathi Scott - k.scott@wc.school.nz if you would like to explore this idea further.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
