Hamilton Homestay Services - HHS

🏡 Attention Rototuna Junior High School Information Evening attendees!

Come find our booth on Thursday 4 June 2026, 6pm–7pm to learn about hosting an international student.

No pressure – just a friendly chat + FREE goodie bags (lollies, an exclusive reusable strawberry shopping bag & more!).

See you there! 👋

Welcome to RotoVegas! 🎢🌋 Huge thanks to our host family for this unforgettable memory with their international student.

They tackled the sulphur smell (windows up – a Kiwi rite of passage!), rode the gondola, hit the luge, walked the treetops, and topped it off with a jetboat ride. Verdict? "Best day ever!" 🚤💨

Hosting is about creating memories, not just providing a room.

Spaces fill quickly – don’t miss out!

Our local expertise means you and your international student will enjoy a smooth, rewarding journey together.

"Fish and chips, fish and chips / Makes me want to lick my lips..." YUM! 🐟🍟

Thank you to our wonderful host family for treating one of our international students to a classic Hamiltonian Kiwi adventure — a trip to Raglan! 🌊

Beach + fish and chips = the perfect combo. ☀️

That's homestay for you — good food, great company, and making memories together.

Do the mahi, get the treats 🥝, is how the New Zealand saying goes!

And that goes for our local and international Rangatahi alike!

Great to see these three putting in the hard work together and then enjoying the rewards later. Good on them, guys! 🙌

That's what hosting an international student with Hamilton Homestay Services is all about – learning, growing, and sharing the good stuff.

This is what cultural exchange looks like — East meets West, one game at a time ♟️💛

Here, the student presents historical Chinese characters through a card game from their culture with the host dad, while the host family shared Kiwi favourites — Monopoly and Operation.

At Hamilton Homestay Services, it’s these everyday moments that turn cultural exchange into real connection 💛

Finding familiar food from home — and making new furry friends 🐶💛 — are some of our favourite “comfort moments” after a student arrives in New Zealand.

One of our wonderful host family took their students to a local Asian grocery store to find snacks and flavours from home. A small gesture that makes a big difference in helping students feel settled.

At Hamilton Homestay Services, it’s these everyday moments that help turn a new place into home 💛
