Kea (Nestor Notabilis) SELWYN TIMES Tuesday July 26 2016 21 SCHOOLS NEW STUDENTS: The Korean students were welcomed by politician Steven Joyce at a ceremony in Methven last week. PHOTO: BRAM CORBAN Korean students in Selwyn schools KOREAN STUDENTS are about to make Lincoln and Darfield High Schools their own for the next eight weeks. As part of the Free Trade Agreement that was signed between New Zealand and Korea last year, 150 Korean students will attend high school and university in New Zealand as part of a three-year programme. Fifty-five of those students are at Canterbury schools. The Korean students come from rural and semi-rural backgrounds and have been accepted to the programme on scholarships to improve their English language skills. The students are aged between 14 and 16-years-old. The students were welcomed at a ceremony in Methven with tertiary education, skills and employment minister Steven Joyce before meeting their homestay families. During their time in Canterbury they will stay with host families while they attend school and learn more about the culture as well as extending their English language skills. Lincoln High School principal Kathy Paterson said it was exciting for the school to be accepted in the programme. “We’re excited to have this opportunity. We are hugely supportive of having international students,” said Mrs Paterson. Lincoln High School’s five Korean students started last week with an introduction to the school before meeting their fellow classmates. The students have been able to choose their own classes to take while they study.
