Would you like to be paid to host an international student?

AFS Intercultural Programmes and Go Kiwi Go

Hi Neighbours, we need your help!
Here at AFS Intercultural Programmes, we are looking for some friendly families to host a few of our international students coming to Wellington for three weeks in July/August.
These high-school-aged students are coming from all around the world to Wellington to take part in our Global Prep Programme: Sustainability and the Environment. Hosting one of these students would give you the unique opportunity to experience a whole new culture from the comfort of your own home! Plus, we’ll pay you $300 per week to host them.
We're looking for families who can host students from the 14th of July to the 4th of August as this is when the programme takes place. If you are interested in hosting or would like to learn more, please get in touch with us by email, joanna.holm@afs.org , or calling us on 0800 600 300.
We look forward to hearing from you!
The Team at AFS Intercultural Programmes New Zealand.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
