Encouraging Students to Endeavour
Welcome to Rewi Alley Chinese School! Situated in Christchurch NZ and founded in 1998, we are one of the largest Chinese schools in New Zealand.
At Rewi Alley, we aim to provide quality Chinese language and culture classes to share Chinese culture throughout New Zealand, and learning courses in STEM and Art to support students to achieve academic success. We believe that encouraging students to reach for their full potential provides a positive learning environment for them to learn and flourish.
We provide a full range of courses for students aged 5-18. Our Chinese classes run from Preliminary Chinese to Level 13 Chinese, along with HSK Levels 4-6. Art covers different styles including children's art, sketching, acrylic, watercolour, and traditional Chinese painting/calligraphy. Our STEM classes include Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Robotics, and Programming.
​
Our OSCAR accredited holiday programme has a bilingual (Chinese/English) and S-T-E-A-M focus and is developed to be fun and captivating for children. There is a new theme each term, and children can enjoy engaging project-based learning activities both on-site and through excursions. The programmes are OSCAR accredited with WINZ subsidy available.
We offer private tuition classes for students of 4+ years old. A wide range of school subjects are provided, including Chinese, English, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and Programming.
These classes offer an opportunity for in-depth coverage of school subjects, or can also be suitable for students pursuing qualifications in IB or Cambridge.

Learn or enrich knowledge with our adult evening Chinese classes, which focus on Chinese language, culture, and business communication. We also offer parenting workshops and seminars on how families can support their children's academic journey.
