Learn New Every Day – new global brand campaign launched to attract international students to New Zealand
The new campaign called Learn New Every Day, delivers a student’s point of view of the first-time experiences international students could encounter in a single day when they study with New Zealand.
ENZ’s General Manager of Marketing and Communication, Geoff Bilbrough, said that 'Learn New Every Day’ is designed to cut through in a very competitive market.
“We wanted to capture the essence of what it is really like to study with New Zealand, taking the perspective of a learner as they encounter new experiences, and convey the excitement and emotion as they go through their day.
“What makes the campaign more memorable is its high energy, positive, contemporary feel. And the first-person point of view approach is unique to the category,” Geoff said.
Geoff went on to say, “The scenes and scenarios in the campaign reflect our core values of a high-quality education and employability/future opportunities. These messages are woven through the campaign through imagery and action involving learners in a range of environments across all parts of New Zealand’s education sector, alongside the well-known adventure and social experiences. The featured imagery reflects what we know international students are looking for in a New Zealand education.”
Learn New Every Day was pre-tested and performed well in in-depth one-on-one interviews with students and parents from China, South Korea, India, and Viet Nam. Feedback was also sought from across New Zealand’s international education sector, who also responded positively to the concepts, their relevance to the young learner, and the clarity of the idea.
ENZ’s Global Brand Manager, Nick Sinclair, said that the campaign involved a mix of current international and domestic students from primary, secondary, and tertiary institutions.
“We had a wonderful time interacting with the international students while capturing these ‘first-experience’ scenes. They were really excited about the opportunity to take part in the decision-making process for other students and their parents as they choose their overseas study destination.
“The campaign communicates what we strongly believe is New Zealand’s competitive edge in the international education market. A New Zealand education experience is as much about the adventure, social experiences, and our unique culture and landscapes, as it is about the high-quality study opportunities that we offer”.
The campaign will run for at least 18 months. It is running initially in China, India, South Korea, Thailand, Viet Nam, and Japan targeting students aged 16 to 24 and their parents across all sectors including high school, university, Te Pūkenga, English language schools and private training establishments. Campaign assets include videos of various lengths, digital banners, and assets for the creation of off-line collateral such as banners, and other materials, in English and the local languages of our target countries.
As well as featuring across paid digital media in these countries, the campaign features on all 10 Study with New Zealand websites, in all communications with prospects that sign up to Study with New Zealand, and across all other ENZ channels.

Cohort 4 students arriving
Andy Walker, Business Development Manager at Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao, says the nomination process for Cohort 4 has now closed.
“We recently made a final reallocation of unused places to providers from across the sector, who had demonstrated they have travel-ready students.
“Students whose nominations have been confirmed are encouraged to submit their Request for Travel application to Immigration New Zealand as soon as possible. Immigration New Zealand have advised that as at 21 June, 4,709 RFTs had been approved and 1,862 student visa applications granted.
“We’ve worked very closely with the Ministry of Education and collaborated with Immigration New Zealand throughout this process. We have particularly valued the partnership with education providers across the sector to successfully implement the cohort,” Andy says.
“I’m very pleased that we’ve been able to bring back these international students sooner than would otherwise have been possible. International students bring a wealth of social, cultural and economic benefits, and we’re all looking forward to welcoming them back to New Zealand.”

Digital masterclass a runaway success
Two New Zealand academics were among the speakers showcasing the latest technological solutions to revolutionise education at this second SEAMEO – New Zealand masterclass.
Professor Richard Green from the Department of Computer Science & Software Engineering at the University of Canterbury, who also co-chairs the NZ AI Researchers Association, presented on “AI is Revolutionising Sustainability, Food and Biosecurity”. Dr Suranga Nanayakkara, Associate Professor at the Auckland Bioengineering Institute, University of Auckland, presented on “Kiwrious: Keeping Kiwi Kids Curious”. The other two keynote speakers were from National Institute of Education, Singapore, and Universiti Malaya, Malaysia.
The event was broadcast on SEAMEO Secretariat YouTube Channel and targeted policy-makers, government officials, educators, teachers, lecturers at TVET institutions and universities in Southeast Asia and beyond.
“The high level of interest in this event reflects the changes that the COVID-19 pandemic has caused in the way we live, work and learn,” said ENZ’s Regional Director, Asia, Ben Burrowes.
“A huge part of the attraction of a New Zealand education has been our world-class teaching and learning environment. We have been focusing on teaching 21st century skills within our national education strategy. This includes soft skills enabling our students to become critical, creative and independent learners. Our use of digital technology in the classrooms is also widely recognised and remains a huge focus in our school and tertiary curriculum.
“This second Master Class gave teachers and educators in the Southeast Asia region an opportunity to learn more about what a New Zealand education can offer, and broaden their viewpoints on the technological disruptions arising from the COVID-19 pandemic.”
Officially admitted as an Associate Member Country in 1973, New Zealand's co-operative relations with SEAMEO include scholarships and provision of experts for SEAMEO Regional Centres. The first SEAMEO-New Zealand masterclass on “Education Technology and Digital Security” was held in September 2021.
