Enrolment - Cohort Entry

From 2021 the Board of Trustees adopted a cohort entry policy. This means that children who have turned 5 will start school in cohorts. There are two cohorts per term; Week 1 and Week 5.

 

New Entrants and their parents or caregivers are encouraged to particiipate in our transition to school programme or visit the school before the child’s fifth birthday.   Our foundation room teacher will send out details to all families of children who are pre-enrolled.

 

For enrolment please bring a copy of the child’s birth certificate or NZ Passport to verify their date of birth and the child’s immunisation certificate and proof of address, i.e. power bill, rent agreement, rates bill etc.  At enrolment time the formalities to be completed include:

  • an enrolment form for school records

  • a record of immunisations

  • details of relevant medical conditions and medication

  • an asthma plan if required

  • bus travel arrangements if your child is eligible


Children may be enrolled when they turn five and must be enrolled by the age of six years unless granted special dispensation by the Ministry of Education.   We will not admit short-stay students who remain on the roll of another school.
