Dunedin, New Zealand

Trips & Activities

Each semester, BCA offers an excursion for our students.  All costs are included in the program fee.  BCA will notify you about excursion details shortly after your arrival in Dunedin.

Excursions are likely to change from year to year, but past students have enjoyed the following adventures:

Student Experiences

Student Life

Student Name: Eric Sader, McPherson College, Fall 2008

Organization: Student Life

Contact Information:  http://www.studentlife.co.nz/otago

Description: Student Life went on retreats, had weekly meetings, did outreach events, such as Bring the Love. When combining these activities with a population far less Christian than in my upbringing, it helped me deeply examine and strengthen my own faith.

Student Soul

Student Name: Eric Sader, McPherson College, Fall 2008

Organization: Student Soul

Contact Information: http://www.studentsoul.church.net.nz/

Description: Student Soul is affiliated with the Presbyterian Church. It is a nice, casual, upbeat service to attend. It also has smaller discussion groups and occasionally other activities, including a weekend camp I attended. The evening schedule and welcoming atmosphere made it always easy to utilize.

Student Association

Student Name: Eric Sader, McPherson College, Fall 2008

Organization: Student Association

Contact Information: http://www.ousa.co.nz/

Description: I signed up for a couple activities through the student association on campus. One I particularly enjoyed was a Kava ceremony acquainting one with the Fijian community. This and many, many others were offered.

Mentor Program

Student Name: Eric Sader, McPherson College, Fall 2008

Organization: Mentor Program

Contact Information: http://www.otago.ac.nz/international/mentorprogramme.html

Description: A mentor program pairs you with an established Otago student. It gives you a local contact and a few activities, especially early on. Movies, food, and other get-togethers were offered at no charge.

Ultimate

Student Name: Eric Sader, McPherson College, Fall 2008

Organization: Ultimate

Contact Information: Student Association Activities Fair
