From the frosty peaks of Aoraki / Mount Cook to the serene wilderness of Milford Sound, New Zealand offers a spectacular range of environments to make your real-world classroom. Get intrepid with a trip to the Waitomo Caves to study the illuminating spectacle of glow-worms that twinkle like stars, or walk up to Mount Eden, the dormant volcano that towers over Auckland, to investigate how this natural wonder came to be.
The Māori people have called Aotearoa (the Māori name for their country) home for over 700 years, and during this time have developed rich cultural traditions that they continue to practice to this day. Learn about the history of the haka – the ceremonial dance made world-famous by the All Blacks rugby team, relish a Māori feast prepared by hāngi – a traditional method of cooking using a pit oven, and explore the significance of tā moko – intricate facial tattoos that play an important role in Māori identity.
Humanities students will find fertile ground upon which to expand their critical thinking skills as they study the controversial Treaty of Waitangi, New Zealand’s participation in both World Wars, and the bombing of the Rainbow Warrior. They learn how these events, and many others, have shaped New Zealand into the proud, diverse nation it is today.
The wealth of educational opportunities available in New Zealand are brought into sharp focus by Latitude Group Travel’s school tours that are tailor-made to connect with the Australian curriculum, so students continue to develop their skills and knowledge beyond the classroom while enjoying the experience of a lifetime!
