Student activities

There is a lot to do in andaround Hamilton and Tauranga. As always in New Zealand, outdoor-based activities are hugely popular pastimes. Hiking in the hills around town is a great way to discover the area – so is mountain-biking. Waterbased fun of all sorts can be had during the summer months. Regular Market Days in town, a rich cultural scene and good nightlife provide an appealing contrast to the rugged times outdoors. The abundance of possibilities makes it a good idea to talk to the locals and fellow students, to find out about “the places to go”.
