International Student Programme
 




At St Peter’s College we value cultural diversity and enjoy the presence of international students who enrich our community.  In return, we welcome the opportunity to offer a quality international student programme headed  by Mrs Brenda Hogue who is our International Student Director.  Brenda is a fully qualified New Zealand teacher who has specialised in caring for and teaching international students for the past 15 years.  St Peter’s College is a signatory to the Code of Practice for the Pastoral Care of International Students (as required by New Zealand’s Ministry of Education).

International students have the option of living at the boarding house that adjoins the school or staying with a New Zealand family.  St Peter’s College further supports international students by providing them with an extensive range of opportunities including:

  • Airport pick-ups
  • An orientation programme
  • A qualified and experienced English (ESOL) teacher
  • English tuition offered at all levels (Elementary to High Intermediate including the IELTS examination)
  • An after-school homework/curriculum support programme
  • A comprehensive and individualised pastoral care programme
  • A wide variety of sporting, outdoor education and cultural activities
  • Chances to explore the many wonderful scenic and outdoor recreational attractions of the picturesque southern South Island
