Parent and Child Family Programme
PARENT & CHILD FAMILY PROGRAMME
This programme is designed for families who wish to experience New Zealand life as a family and learn English together and/or for parents who wish to chaperon their family members while they are studying English at WISEL. The parents or family members can study English at WISEL while younger children can join a local school and study and play alongside local kids.
How does it work?
Children under 5 years old can attend a local pre-school or kindergarten or WISEL can arrange private childcare.
Children aged 5 – 10 can attend a local primary school (Mon-Fri 8:45am – 3pm)
Children aged 11 + can attend the local College (8.40am – 3.20pm)
Parent/s and older children can attend an English Language course at WISEL (Part-time 15 hours a week or fulltime 23 hours a week)
How long can you study for?
We recommend enrolment for longer than four weeks so the family can truly experience the “kiwi lifestyle” while learning English in a school and different cultural environment. The enrolment needs to be in New Zealand school term times.
What accommodation is available?
Homestay: You can live with a local host family and enjoy a unique New Zealand family experience. You will be provided with two meals a day during the week and three meals in the weekends.
Motel Unit: You can rent a family sized motel unit and enjoy the freedom and independence like you do at home. You will be able to cook your own meals in a fully equipped kitchen in your motel unit.
