The holiday camp is designed around the need for student socialisation in their term breaks and the impact it has on their confidence, English progression and their overall experience while in New Zealand.

• Non-Stop Social Opportunities
  Say goodbye to quiet, lonely holidays. Here, your friends and peers are just down the hallway. You can laugh, chat, and hang out from breakfast until bedtime, fostering friendships and connections.
• Built-In Group Adventures
  We handle all the transport and planning for epic group trips across NZ. Whether we are heading to nearby beaches, exploring local attractions, or hitting city shopping spots, you will be experiencing the best of New Zealand surrounded by a great group of peers.
• Natural English Practice
  While students enjoy themselves in a relaxed, social setting all day with students from different schools and backgrounds, conversational English will naturally skyrocket through casual conversation, games, and shared experiences.

During the holidays, the incredible St. Peter’s campus will be able to offer students what it can’t during the term. Without the pressure of a school timetable, students can enjoy St. Peter’s world-class facilities at a completely relaxed, unhurried pace:

• Holiday Comforts
  Our modern boarding houses transform into your ultimate holiday lodge. Think group movie marathons, video game tournaments, snack nights, and baking sessions in the communal kitchens.
• Casual Sports & Recreation
  Gather a crew for a relaxed swim in our heated pools, a casual game of tennis, or just kick a ball around on the expansivefields under the afternoon sun—completely free from coached practices or team pressures.
• Unique School Experiences
  Explore parts of the school you don't always get to see during the busy term, from experiencing our on-site Owl Farm and understanding the sustainability goals and NZ dairy industry, to the world-class atmosphere of our equestrian centre, golf centre, and neighbouring velodrome and sports facilities.

We know that exams and assessments are always in the back of student’s minds, and trying to motivate them to study alone during the holidays can be tough.

At the camp, we introduce collaborative study blocks. You can head to a quiet space to prepare for your NCEA or IB exams with the support of our English and EAL teams. Take breaks with your friends, quiz each other, and keep each other motivated so you return to your respective schools next term feeling refreshed, ahead of your studies, and full of new memories.

If you would like specific focus on studies or English development, we can organise tutoring for your student with our team. Please enquire around the packages available.

The international student holiday camp at St. Peter’s, Cambridge provides a thoroughly well-rounded extension to a student’s time in New Zealand by seamlessly blending safe, community-focused living with the magic of the Kiwi lifestyle.
