ENROLMENT

In New Zealand, most children start school shortly after they turn five.  All children must be enrolled at school by their sixth birthday. 

Enrolling early helps us to plan for how many children will be attending - ideally we appreciate enrolments by the end of September of the year before your child will first start school.  Please contact the office if you would like to arrange a visit to our school. 

New entrant students are invited to participate in weekly 'visits' to the class.  This allows them to become familiar with the school environment and teachers.  Parents are welcome to remain with their child in the class or they may wish to wait in the staffroom.  Parents must remain onsite during visits.

Coming for a visit to our school is an opportunity for the school to meet you and your child, learn about your child's interests and learning needs and explain important aspects of Warkworth School.  You may also take the opportunity to ask questions relating to the school.

To enrol at Warkworth School, please provide the following information:

• Child's Birth certificate

• Up to date contact information

• Relevant medical and immunisation records

• Any relevant information relating to the family situation (eg: a shared parenting arrangement)

• Information from the previous kindies/early learning centres/schools including any assessments or reports are very useful

• Proof of address within our enrolment zone

Either click here to download an Application to Enrol and Enrolment Form or collect them from the office.  Please return these to the office once you have completed them along with the required information listed above.  

Please note that a school uniform needs to be purchased before a student can start school. Uniform can be purchased through www.argyleonline.co.nz. A selection on try on sizes are available for sizing in the Senior Office. Please see our Uniform page for more details on the required uniform for students.
