Australia and Its Neighbours: New Zealand

While the continent of Australia is also a single country, it is surrounded by many island nations that we consider to be our neighbours. One such island nation is New Zealand.

New Zealand is located to the south-east of Australia in the South Pacific Ocean. It consists of two major islands – the North Island and the South Island. New Zealand also comprises over 700 smaller islands. The capital city of New Zealand is Wellington.

Multiple Applications of This Map of New Zealand

This colourful classroom map shows some of the major islands and cities of New Zealand. It is the perfect resource to accompany your Geography lessons on Australia and its neighbouring countries. You may wish to use this poster in the following ways:

  1. Print the poster on A3 paper and display it in your classroom as a reminder of the geographical features of New Zealand.
  2. As you teach your students about Australia’s neighbouring countries, provide students with a smaller version of the poster to paste into their workbooks.
  3. Add this poster to a classroom display about Australia and its surrounding countries. Encourage students to add facts about New Zealand around the poster.
