At the University of Waikato, we refer to Summer School as "C Trimester".

C Trimester, and the G and H Teaching periods, are taught over the summer period and provide a great opportunity to pick up some extra papers to get your degree completed faster. Best of all, if you are getting StudyLink assistance, it can continue over the summer period if you are enrolled in papers.
