Volunteer-guide led educational tours are available for school groups visiting Matiu/Somes Island. These half-day morning or afternoon tours cover the island's unique cultural and natural history. They fit well with the New Zealand Curriculum and with NCEA programmes.
The tour cost is $2 per student (plus $13 per student for the return ferry fare).
Please note that as the term 4 demand for tours can exceed guiding capacity, bookings for November and December should be made by the end of term 3.

One teacher describes it as 'like a zoo trip, but more hands on and no travel to organise".
There is a high level of interaction in our sessions, students have huge lizards on their laps, see chinchillas rolling in a dustbath, hold rare tortoises, build leopard gecko habitats and many more exciting and engaging experiences.
Structured interactive learning with a high educational value.

Take the sting out of interviews for your students!
CareerStart has developed a resource to support careers advisers as they assist students with interview skills, whether it's for a part-time job, permanent employment, or even tertiary study.
The aim is to narrow the gap between candidate and interviewer through a step-wise guide to preparation, the interview itself, and follow up. Worksheets reinforce each step, with master copies sent to careers coaches.
'Job Interview Success' is a concise and relatable guide, and an invaluable teaching tool. Run individual coaching sessions, group workshops or have a copy on hand to lend students.
