What school directors said about Queenstown

Pauline Copland

Queenstown is a very special place in beautiful NZ. The crystal clear waters of Lake Wakatipu and stunning mountains make the experience of living and studying here unforgettable. The freedom, the friendliness of the people and the fantastic landscape make Queenstown an essential place to visit in NZ.
