Taieri College
About Us
Taieri College is the newest member of the ODENZ group of schools.
International students are warmly welcomed into Taieri College; a friendly community college that cares about its people and its environment.
Mosgiel is located on the Taieri Plain, a green fertile valley with mountains and the Taieri River its features, with the blue of the Pacific Ocean and downtown Dunedin just 20 minutes away. As in country areas, we look after each other and those who come to work and study with us. The school and local community value the shared cultural learning exchange which naturally happens when international students are involved in their lives. Outdoor activities blend into school life in the same way as students are wrapped in warm host families.
Learning is through holistic education, interaction and exploration in this safe and secure school.
