Why we travel to New Zealand for an extended period?

Ever wondered why we pack up our tiny paradise in The Netherlands and haul ourselves across the globe to New Zealand just so our little ones can hit the books? It's like we're saying, "Hey, forget the windmills, kids! We're off to study in a land where sheep outnumber humans!" Who needs cozy wooden shoes when you can learn the Haka dance and perform it during morning tea? We're all about giving our children a well-prepared adulthood, even if it means they'll have to master both Dutch and the art of dodging Kea bird attacks.

International education

International education and English language proficiency are important aspects of our long-term education plan for the children

Strengthening family bonds

Prioritizing what truly matters in this hectic world. Spending quality time with family and loved ones and focusing on the essential.

Support local community

We support the local community through volunteering and financial expenditures in retail and tourism.

Blog

Welcome to our exciting blog where we chronicle the unforgettable journey of our brave Dutch kids as they dive headfirst into the land of hobbits, haka, and kiwi fruit. Yes, you heard it right – they're leaving their wooden clogs behind and strapping on some welly boots and flip flops because it's time to conquer a New Zealand primary school!
