Auckland: City of Sails
Auckland, the largest city in New Zealand, is situated on a narrow
stretch of land in the north of the country. The city's two harbours have earned
it the name of "City of Sails".
Auckland has magnificent beaches and
perfect sailing conditions. A boat trip to the islands in the Hauraki Gulf is
an experience not to be missed. Auckland is the financial and business centre
of New Zealand and, as such, it naturally offers attractive shopping amenities,
for example the Atrium on Elliott Street. The largest collection of Polynesian
and Maori art in the world is on show at the Auckland Museum. Those who wish to
see typical New Zealand bush can take a trip through the Waitakere Ranges in West
Auckland.
The School
The LSI Auckland campus is situated right in the centre of Auckland, close to cafes and restaurants and just a ten minute walk away from bus links ( see map of school location ).
The school has bright classrooms which overlook the phoenix palm trees in Myers Park. Facilities include a computer room with internet access, a television and video, a small library and student common rooms.
The social activities programme includes three categories of activity: cultural, social and sporting. For example, students can take part in a diving course or learn to sail in summer and in winter there is weekend skiing, windsurfing and horse-riding and more.
