School Exchange Programme
Why Choose the GoKiwis Sister School Exchange Programme?
Professional Planning & Seamless Education Partnerships
With years of experience working closely with the New Zealand education sector, GoKiwis has developed strong relationships with local schools and education partners. We help Taiwanese schools identify suitable New Zealand partner schools based on their curriculum, educational goals and student needs.
Our team can support the entire partnership process, from sister-school matching and agreement coordination to programme design, curriculum collaboration and exchange itinerary planning, helping schools build meaningful and sustainable international education partnerships.
Local Support Teams in New Zealand & Australia
With dedicated local support in New Zealand, GoKiwis is able to assist students beyond the application and planning stage. Whether students are joining a short-term study tour or a longer school exchange programme, our support begins before departure and continues after arrival.
From pre-departure preparation and airport pick-up to settling into everyday life and following up on students’ learning experiences, our team provides practical support throughout the journey, giving schools, students and families greater peace of mind.
Flexible Exchange Models for Different Educational Goals
Our short-term school exchange programmes, typically lasting 3–6 weeks during the winter or summer holidays, are suitable for students from primary through secondary school.
Students have the opportunity to join a local New Zealand school and experience authentic classroom learning alongside Kiwi students. Programmes may include English development, STEAM learning, cross-cultural team activities and outdoor environmental experiences.
By becoming part of everyday school life rather than simply visiting a campus, students can strengthen their communication skills while developing a deeper understanding of other cultures and international education.
Comprehensive Programme Support & Risk Management
GoKiwis provides comprehensive support throughout the programme, helping schools manage both practical arrangements and student wellbeing. Services may include flight and insurance arrangements, homestay or accommodation matching and coordination, 24-hour local emergency assistance, student adjustment support, communication between parents and schools, and documentation of programme outcomes.
Two-Way School Exchange Programme
GoKiwis goes beyond arranging learning experiences for Taiwanese students in New Zealand. We also help schools develop genuine two-way partnerships, creating opportunities for New Zealand teachers and students to visit partner schools in Taiwan. Exchange activities can include cultural presentations, collaborative English learning, cross-curricular projects, short-term teaching and joint lesson development. Through a two-way school exchange, Taiwanese schools can build a more comprehensive international education programme. Students develop intercultural understanding and practical communication skills, while teachers gain opportunities to collaborate with international educators, exchange teaching ideas and observe different approaches to learning. The result is a more meaningful model of international education — one built on genuine interaction, shared learning and long-term partnership.
Partnership Highlights
Schools including Yi-Hsing Bilingual Innovation Elementary School in Taoyuan, Taoyuan Municipal Yung-Feng High School and Huey Deng High School in Yilan have participated in GoKiwis exchange programmes.
GoKiwis has also developed cooperation with more than 20 primary, intermediate and secondary schools across New Zealand, supporting partnership discussions and MOUs as well as online collaborative learning and cross-cultural curriculum projects.
These partnerships are designed to create ongoing opportunities for interaction between students and teachers rather than one-off overseas visits.
