Staying on to see something of New Zealand after the conference? The Easter break follows on immediately after the IFTE conference. Friday 22nd, [Good Friday], Sunday 24th [Easter Sunday] and Monday 25th [Easter Monday] are public holidays in New Zealand. Schools are on holiday until resuming on Monday May 2nd. April in New Zealand is often mild and sunny. Autumn in the lower North Island and South Island can be spectacular. The World Cup [Rugby Football] is later in the year so you will not be caught up in throngs of Rugby enthusiasts. |
