Give your child a safe, authentic New Zealand classroom experience
This page is for parents and students who want to understand how short-term study visits work, who they are suitable for, and how EduLink supports you from the first idea to the moment your child sits in a New Zealand classroom.
- Best suited for children roughly 5–13 years old in primary or lower‑secondary years (roughly New Zealand Years 1–8).
- Flexible placement length: typically 4–10 weeks for better settling and immersion.
- Real classroom experience, with the option to combine with family travel.
Limited intakes so we can provide detailed, personal support
Common questions from families
If these sound like you, you’re in the right place.
