Welcome to St John’s College!
Nau mai ki Hato Hoani!
We are always excited to have international students add to the rich and diverse cultures of our school.
Founded in 1941 and with a current role of just over 420 young men, our aim is to provide a high-quality education, grounded in Gospel values within our Catholic and Marist traditions. Our international students have not always been Catholic but have accepted our Values in their path to manhood.
St John’s College has a strong focus on excellence in academia, sport and the Arts, supported by a totally dedicated and highly-qualified teaching and administrative staff where international students will feel at home, learn, thrive and grow.
We love hosting short and long-term students to experience not only a world-class New Zealand education but also our world-renowned, beautiful Hawke’s Bay.
We have excellent homestays that will welcome your son into their homes and families, who enjoy hosting overseas students in a safe environment. They allow our international students truly to embrace the ‘Kiwi’ lifestyle.
St John’s College is a signatory to the Code of Practice for the Pastoral Care of International Students published by the Ministry of Education.
