Lynfield College is committed to providing
a quality experience for International Students


Our International Student Programme began in the 1980s. Its success has been due to the quality academic courses, excellent support systems and the availability of a wide range of opportunities in and out of school. International students from all over the world choose to study at Lynfield College, the majority for the long term, aiming to complete their high school education in New Zealand.

The academic NCEA programmes and qualifications provide students with a pathway to tertiary study both in NZ and overseas. The wide choice and flexibility of subjects offered enable students to select programmes suiting their ability, interest and future plans.

The College operates its own Homestay Programme. Local families choose to open their homes to provide students with a safe, caring environment and give them opportunities to improve their English and experience New Zealand culture and hospitality. In compliance with the Code of Practice all families must be police vetted and every placement is monitored.

Relationships with overseas schools and organisations have enabled Lynfield students the opportunity to travel overseas to enhance their language learning, experience a new culture and make global connections.

The College’s relationship with Shinagawa City, Japan provides Japanese language students with the chance to participate in the Friendship delegation which travels to Shinagawa every two years. Similarly relationships with schools in Germany and China provide reciprocal exchange opportunities.
