Accomodation
Homestay Programme Nearly all of LSI Language School's students choose to stay with a friendly New Zealand family. The families are well known for their kindness and hospitality. Staying with a private family is very economical, and it offers students the opportunity to practise the language further in an authentic setting. LSI take great care in selecting the families they use - their hosts will provide a comfortable private room, completely furnished, with a desk for students to study at. Students are given breakfast and dinner during the weeks, and breakfast, lunch, and dinner, in the weekends (Half-board option). Most New Zealanders are relatively casual in their home life, and may ask students to join them in the kitchen to prepare a typical dish from their home country, or to help themselves to breakfast, rather than being served. All LSI's Host Families are within a 30-45 minute bus ride from the school. LSI's Homestay Coordinator will give students help whenever they need it.
