Become a Host

Hosting a student from overseas is a very rewarding experience. It’s an opportunity to make a new friend and learn about another culture.

Our hosts tell us they really enjoy learning about life in Asia, Europe, South America or the Middle East, and our students appreciate the warm and friendly introduction to Kiwi culture that they get from their homestay family.

What we look for in a CCEL host home:

• A furnished separate bedroom with adequate heating
• Breakfast and dinner on weekdays and all meals at the weekend and on public holidays
• Wireless internet access
• A warm and friendly environment where the student is included in family life
• Assistance with learning how to travel to and from school and adjusting to life in NZ

We are always willing to meet new families with a genuine interest in hosting international students.
