With all the necessary supporting units, that's a lot more than battalion sized!
Probably more like 16 leopards plus supporting elements, a company of light motorised infantry (trucks), plus a small logistics unit (maybe 30 men). An 81mm mortar battery or 105mm howitzers from NZ may give a little fire support, and a handful of other assets supplied to give some flexibility. NZ might bring in another couple of infantry companies to round out the formation too, possibly bringing in a few of their Scimitars for recon.
