INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

Rector Welcome, we trust your association with the school will be both challenging and rewarding.

International students are warmly received into our school's community and we value this opportunity for contact with other cultures. The school acknowledges that the learning it provides today needs to prepare all students for life in a global world.

Our aim is to provide the education best suited to the needs of our international students. We stress the importance of an academic curriculum supported by all the important sporting, cultural and social aspects of education.

At Timaru Boys' High School we aim to prepare our students for future tertiary and vocational opportunities and to provide international students with the necessary qualifications and fluency in English to succeed in their chosen career. International students will be fully supported in their learning and well cared for.

"We look forward to sharing the experience of our school and culture with you."

Mr Kevin O'Sullivan
Rector
