We have an extensive homestay programme with over 100 families involved. As Queenstown is relatively small, all of these families are known personally by us and are an integral part of the college. Most of our students stay with one of our homestay families and if the students are staying on in Queenstown we are able to assist them in finding accommodation. Living with New Zealand families gives students the opportunity of experiencing our way of life.

Activities:
We have a great activity programme for all our students at SLEC. We
have a free after school activity every Wednesday. Our school buses
mean that we can travel to interesting local places away from the
centre of town. We also encourage students to do many of the great
activities available in Queenstown such as sky diving, bungy jumping,
paragliding . Maori shows and enjoying the great nature as well as
socialising together at weekends. In this way, you can share great life
experiences with other students from all over the world. A great fun
way to practise your English that you learn at school.

SLEC thoroughly evaluates the accommodation that it advertises and can
