About Invercargill
Invercargill is Southland’s principal city, laid out on a classic grid with wide streets, parks and heritage buildings. It offers practical amenities, secondary and tertiary options, and access to Stewart Island/Rakiura and Fiordland.
Southland Region
The Southland Region covers the far south of the South Island, including rural countryside, fjords, wildlife, and small-town communities. It’s less populated than many other regions but offers distinct advantages: fewer distractions, strong pastoral traditions and immersive New Zealand culture. For students who want to get away from the mainstream yet still receive a solid education, Southland can be a compelling choice.
