E mihi nui e ngā hou e whā! Greetings to the four winds!

We welcome our international students in the spirit of manaakitanga (care and respect) and whanaungatanga (connection), two of the four values of our school. When you choose Rotorua Lakes High School, we welcome you into our family, and provide opportunities and support for your success.

Our school has excellent academic learning programs, including language support and development, and clear, well-established pathways into further education. We are situated in a network of lakes and hills, created by volcanic processes, and our students can access a range of outdoor education and co-curricular opportunities, from tramping to mountain biking to waka ama. 

We’d love to hear from you and work out a shared learning experience with you. We provide personalised programmes to further your goals and help you have the most amazing international experience.
