Evakona Education, Whitianga

Locations

At Evakona, our classrooms are never dull. Our teachers are enthusiastic, the classroom atmosphere vibrant and our class sizes small, so no one gets left behind.

But it doesn’t stop there. We also take the teaching out of the classroom: into local recreational clubs, sport teams and community activities. So learning happens in real-life situations and through live interactions. As a result, our students improve faster, and retain the knowledge for a lifetime.

Personalised care and support for your language learning success

At Evakona, our team consists of highly qualified teachers, student counsellors, social activity coordinators, homestay coordinators, host families, placement agents...and more! The entire team is devoted to providing personal care and attention to ensure that students’ objectives are met, and that they flourish in their new environment. Our students tell us this type of support sets us apart from the others – but you be the judge.

The Coromandel, our front garden, is New Zealand's favourite holiday destination. People from Auckland, Hamilton and other cities come here to relax on the white sandy beaches, enjoy fishing, surfing, other marine sports and life in the beach towns. Framed by native Pohutukawa trees on the western side, beautiful white sandy beaches in the east and divided by ranges cloaked in native rainforest, the Coromandel’s 400 kms of coastline offer the visitor a truly distinctive blend of experiences.

The key feature of The Coromandel is our people. Known as friendly, relaxed and welcoming, they look forward to meeting you and sharing their little paradise with you. Mercury Bay, on the East Coast of the Coromandel Peninsula, offers a spectacular coast flanked by islands. The area has white sandy beaches, crystal clear creeks, green mountains...a variety of dramatic landscapes all around to welcome you.

Whitianga is the main town of the Coromandel Area, which is located on the eastern side of the Coromandel Peninsula, 208 kms from Auckland (2.5 - 3 hours driving time). It is a popular holiday town for many people from other cities around NZ and overseas. Whitianga has about 4,000 permanent residents and offers a full range of services and attractions for visitors. Whitianga has an excellent selection of fine restaurants and cafes and a wide variety of accommodation to cater for everyone. The relatively sheltered waters of the bay are great for all kinds of water sports. On land you can enjoy bush walks, horse trekking, tours, adventures, shopping and restaurants; or check out the local artists on Mercury Bay's Craft Trail.
