Charlie Syme USA Flower’s House
Every year, a number of College boys are awarded prestigious university scholarships, and more than 90% of leaving students will pursue tertiary education – either in New Zealand or overseas. American universities Every year, a number of College students gain results worthy of entry to universities in the United States. United Kingdom universities It is widely accepted that top students at College are as good as top students anywhere in the world. However, it is not just about results. Top universities are looking for students who have also taken part in sport, cultural activities, and community service. Christ’s College boys have the opportunity to showcase the breadth and depth of their many experiences in their applications to enter top universities around the world. Michael Li China Studying at New York University College enabled my success today in several key ways. The small class sizes fostered close relationships between students and teachers, creating an environment where learning was highly personalised and supportive. Beyond academics, College encouraged us to explore interests outside the classroom – from co-curricular activities to opportunities like external competitions.
I chose to attend College because of its rigorous academics, passionate teachers, and world-class coaches who know how to bring out the best in each of us – both in the classroom and on the sports field. College goes above and beyond to make every boarder feel at home, with friendly staff who create a caring environment. I enjoy everything New Zealand has to offer and am happy to be part of the College community.
Oscar Kobayashi Japan Flower’s House
Moving from Japan was a very big change. However, the people at Christ’s College have helped me with everything, from schoolwork to sports. Because of this, I won the South Island title for snowboarding and have enjoyed every moment I have had with my friends and classmates. I will never forget these wonderful memories – from eating in the Dining Hall to the House Haka competitions. When I leave Christ’s College, I will miss everyone and the school.

As an international student, people here always respect the difference
between cultures so it makes me feel very comfortable and included. College always provides a lot of opportunities with different kinds of activities for you to join. The only important thing for you is to be brave and try things you never thought of doing before.
Clemens Ritter Germany Flower’s House
It was the diversity in sports and subjects that made me come to College. What I’ve most enjoyed about boarding is having my friends around me all the time, which makes boarding fun and it doesn’t get boring. I enjoy the structure that boarding life gives me and being at the school all the time. My friends in the boarding House are like a second family to me and I have had amazing experiences with my mates.
