Open a bank a/c in n.zealand when you arrive and simply instruct your bank (need to fax authorisation) to transfer your funds. If you have an aib online account you can do it in 5 minutes on the internet. (takes about 5 days)

Chances are you'll get a poor rate doing this.

For that amount, you should get ask for a better rate, shopping around as necessary.

However it's done, I'd agree it'll be a lot easier if you have an a/c already set up in NZ to accept the fuinds.
 
If you register for a full-time 3rd level course (pick the cheapest you can find) you will not pay comission fees at a bank for changing the money from Euro.
 
Hi, I presume that you want to wire the euros converted to NZ dollars to NZ. You will probably get a better rate from a wiring agency. We have used Money Corp, based in the UK. XEtrade.com also do it and there are a multitude of others. I would recommend contacting your bank and then a couple of agencies and going with the best. The agencies do not charge a fee and from our experience will be much better than the banks. All the best. Enjoy NZ, my wife is from there.
 
Check around with the rates & ask your existing bank for the best rate they can offer. For that amount you should be able to get a failry good rate. Do open an a/c over there first, like previous poster said.

You lucky thing.....would love to go & live in NZ myself..... & your € will go so far out there.
