International Students
Kia ora, こんにちは, 안녕하세요, Hallo, Kumusta, Bula, Talofa
A warm welcome to Roncalli College and the South Canterbury Region!
It is important to us, that you get the greatest possible value out of your NZ Secondary School experience (both in your studies and in student life outside the classroom).
While moving to a new school (and new country) is exciting it can also come with its challenges.
The information and tips below are designed to help during this time of transition.
Support at School
There is a range of support available here at Roncalli College:
Nils Macfarlane
Ashley/Ginny/Miss Walsh (Wellbeing Team)
Nurse Donna

Multicultural Aoraki
