Make the most out of your experience in New Zealand by living with real "kiwis"! You will discover the local way of life as well as having the opportunity to practise your English on a daily basis. You will stay in a comfortably furnished single room and will have half board provided (full board at weekends). You will need to make a journey of 30-45 minutes by bus to get to the school.

Shared apartment Unilodge (from 18 years)
The modern building which houses the comfortable apartments made available by our partner school is located in the centre of Auckland, ten minutes' walk away from the course centre. You will have the choice between a studio with a bathroom and corner kitchen for one person, or a small apartment for 1 to 2 people with a bedroom, bathroom and small kitchen/living room. The building has an outdoor swimming pool and a nice terrace housing a barbecue corner. In a games room, you will be able to play a game of pool or electronic games with your international flatmates. A cinema lounge allows you to watch films on a large screen. The large lounge, with its nice, bright red sofas, invites you to relax or to have lively discussions. A fitness room with some machines is available in order to strengthen your body. You will be able to use a common paying laundry room to wash and iron your laundry.

Leisure

New Zealand offers a wide range of sports and cultural activities. Underwater and extreme sports are very popular, or perhaps you would rather give yourself over to relaxation and stroll through the city’s numerous grassy parks. Auckland is very busy by day and by night. Its restaurants, bars and nightclubs will provide you with unforgettable evenings out. As part of its intensive program, the school offers afternoon activities and organises regular outings and parties. On the weekends, excursions are proposed to discover the region (Bay of Islands, Rotorua, Coromandel etc.).

Testimonial

Alessia Caria My summer in Auckland has been so amazing that I can’t wait to get back there! New Zealand is such a wonderful place that I really hope to be able to move there permanently! And I will never forget the great three months I’ve spent in Crown English, where I had the precious chance to meet people from all over the world, everyone willing to share the same unforgettable experience. I strongly recommend Crown not only because of the friend that surely everyone will meet, but also because of the staff, especially the caring and kind counsellors and the fantastic teachers, which are always ready to help you, and do their job with passion and dedication. Every teacher is different and special, but they’re all great, highly competent and patient. They do their best every day, and I’ll always be grateful for meeting them!
