New Plymouth
PIHMS is based in New Plymouth, nestled between the majestic Mount Taranaki and the scenic West Coast, mid-way between Auckland and Wellington. You’ll find plenty to keep you busy in our lively city, so you’ll enjoy a superb lifestyle while you study.

Mount Taranaki and the surrounding Egmont National Park are home to exceptional hiking, snow boarding or skiing. We’re also right by the sea, which means you can swim, sail, dive or fish, not to mention the surf beaches. To take a break, you can ski the slopes, tackle some of the best surf in the country and enjoy an unspoiled environment. Beyond the natural landscape, New Plymouth has a thriving city centre that will meet all your needs.
