Location & Facilities
New Zealand is a small island country located in the south-western Pacific Ocean. With a population of just 4 million people, it is one of the world's least crowded countries - and most popular vacation destinations for travelers from all over the world. The spectacular landscape of New Zealand includes sweeping coastlines, deep fjords, mysterious rainforests, steaming volcanoes, and great mountain chains
Currently a member of the British Commonweath, New Zealand was first settled about 1000 years ago by a group of Polynesians now called the Maoris. It is said that the great explorer Kupe named the land Aotearoa, which means the Land of the Long White Cloud. Today, these indigenous Maoris make up about 14% of New Zealand's population
People who come from New Zealand are known as Kiwis, a term which developed during World War I. The kiwi bird is the mascot for New Zealand, and many kiwi fruits are exported from the country
New Zealand is a haven for adventurers and thrill seekers, as well as for those seeking relaxation and peace. Despite its small size, it has so much to offer for students, visitors, and residents alike
There are several accommodation options for students studying at Quantum Education. One of the most popular options is a full-board homestay with a local New Zealand family. Homestay families have been carefully selected by Quantum Education, and students are provided with their own fully furnished room. Homestay students receive 3 meals per day. Costs vary for homestays depending on location, but usually range from NZ$210-$230 per week in Auckland and NZ$190 per week in Kerikeri and Whangarei. Costs do not include transporation, telephone, or Internet. The homestay is an ideal option for open-minded students who are interested in learning about a culture by living with locals
Students who study at the Whangarei campus of Quantum Education may live in Quantum House. Located just 5 minutes from the flight training school and 100m from the beach, this is a perfect option for students on a budget. Students may choose either a private or shared bedroom, and share a kitchen and bathroom
Another popular accommodation option for students is renting, either by themselves or with a group of people. Costs for renting vary from NZ$80-$150 for a shared flat or house and NZ$180-$350 for their own flat or house. There are also a wide variety of motels, hotels, lodges and hostels for students who are in New Zealand for shorter amounts of time or are on more of a budget
