A Cinematic Space
Old Forest School is a cinematic sanctuary, lending its enchanting backdrop to film, television, and commercial photo shoots. Its allure has graced TV3’s “The Bachelor NZ,” a seven episode TVNZ series, a New Zealand feature film, and numerous company and magazine shoots. With a plethora of uniquely curated spots, it’s often said that a day is not enough to explore all the magic this place holds.
Inside and out, Old Forest School unfolds with old buildings, the original schoolhouse, a retro pool area, wildflower meadows, open fields, untamed gardens, towering trees, and amiable animals. The absence of outside distractions allows for undivided focus, a seamless flow, and the freedom to dive into the creative zone.
The practicalities are covered too, ample on-site parking and well-appointed bathroom facilities for your crew and talent. Catering can even be taken care of if you wish.
