  • Meet Takako Tominaga – ENZ’s new Senior Market Manager for Japan

    Based in Tokyo, Taki’s role focuses on strengthening New Zealand’s education brand in Japan and increasing student interest in studying in Aotearoa. Her career spans over a decade, including roles with the Victoria State Government, Airbnb during the Tokyo Olympics, and several education institutions in Melbourne. 

    Taki’s connection to New Zealand runs deep – her first overseas experience was studying in Hamilton and Rotorua. That formative time in New Zealand sparked a lifelong passion for international education. 

    “The wonderful experiences I had in New Zealand were the starting point of my journey. I’m excited to help others discover the beauty and strengths of studying there,” she said. 

    Taki has hit the ground running in her role and has already supported a visiting delegation from English New Zealand and represented ENZ at a variety of events.

  • Language and culture exchange strengthens ties with South Korea

    The students, from 64 schools across South Korea, were welcomed by Waiuku College and St Peter’s School in Cambridge, where they connected with local students, explored school facilities, and experienced Kiwi culture first-hand. From powhiri to classroom visits, the exchange sparked meaningful cross-cultural connections.

    Waiuku College Director of Community and Global Relations, Antionette Walters, said the students were amazing, and willing to make the most of their experience.  

    “They were so happy to give anything a go – they even loved trying a New Zealand mince pie!” she said. 

    At St Peter’s, students toured the Equestrian Centre and Golf Academy, with Head of School Jason Speedy welcoming the group and sharing insights into the school’s campus and learning environment. 

    The visit followed a two-week English training programme in rural South Korea, where six experienced New Zealand teachers taught students aged Year 8–11. Selected from over 35 applicants, the teachers represented schools from Hamilton, Hawke’s Bay, Auckland, Cambridge, Wellington, and Tauranga. 

    ENZ representatives joined the programme’s opening event in Yangpyeong on 25 July, meeting the teachers and witnessing the enthusiasm of Korean students engaging with New Zealand’s distinctive teaching style. 

    Bernadette Moffat, ESOL Teacher at Silverdale Normal School and Huntly Primary School, said: “It was a privilege to represent New Zealand and see how eager the students were to learn.”  

    Bernadette was one of six New Zealand teachers who travelled to Korea to teach English and attended the closing ceremony where students were recognised for excellence in English. 

    Looking ahead, EPIS is exploring the possibility of expanding the current short visit into a four-week study experience in New Zealand from 2026, offering even deeper immersion for future scholarship recipients.
