The system supports free thinking, flexibility and helps to build self-esteem. The faculty encourages students to be confident, connected and actively involved.

Part-time work for students in New Zealand
New Zealand has one of the highest minimum wages in the world, and that helps international students immensely to work, gain experience in New Zealand, socialize, gain cultural acclimatization, and support their rent, food, and other expenses while studying. Effective April 1, 2023, the national minimum wage for adults is NZ$22.70 per hour. International students may work up to 20 hours per week while on study visas, and during study or academic breaks they may choose to work full-time, which is typically 40 hours per week.
