Orchard Park is designed for students who want to live in a flatting situation, have a good balance between meeting new people and having independence, and enjoy the security and support of being on campus.
All rooms at Orchard Park are self-catered, with space for 150 residents. The hall is popular with second, third and fourth-year students, international students, and those studying at postgraduate level. This creates a supportive community of students who are keen to get stuck into their studies and build lasting memories with new friends along the way.
Each cottage has its own living, dining and kitchen areas, and there is a recreation room with a pool table, table tennis table and TV. Orchard Park is close to Waikato Management School and Te Kura Toi Tangata Faculty of Education, while still providing a private and relaxed living environment.
