Every year, summer means an influx of Kiwis to beaches, rivers and campgrounds all over Aotearoa. Kiwis love summer – it’s in our DNA – but if we’re honest, we’re not always very good at it. Stay safe with a few tips from Westpac:

- Don’t turn your back to the waves.
- Always take your lifejacket.
- Tell someone when you’ll be back.
- Don’t drive when you are tired.

And remember if you stray too far, the Choppers can help. In the last 12 months, Auckland’s Westpac Rescue Helicopter flew 962 missions keeping Kiwis safe.

Stay safe in Chopper Country.

- All Japanese

Homestay period:
Saturday 16 February 2019 to Monday 18 March 2019 for 4 weeks and 2 nights.

They are all from a very strict women's university and their university does not allow them to stay with any single male aged 16 or over even if the male is a family member.

If the host family has any boy (child, relative or homestay student) aged 15 or under, or female in any age while they are staying, it will be no problem at all unless they are Japanese.
