In Zone

 

• As above
• If you live within the school zone, there is an automatic right of enrolment with proof of address, once we have received your enrolment and other associated forms.

School visits may be arranged for your child to visit the class and meet the teacher prior to starting school by telephoning the school office to arrange. 
A suggested day/time might be a Wednesday morning when the uniform shop is also open.  You can then purchase the child's uniform and they can then go into class at bell time and stay until around morning tea time.

 

 

 

Out of Zone

Newmarket School is unable to accept Out of Zone applications at this time, due to the large expansion of housing in the central Newmarket area, which means we only have room for those living within the school zone.
This is unlikely to change within the next few years.

International Student Enrolments

As we are a small school, we only accept (approx.) 5 International Students per year.
A minimum enrolment of two terms is required.

The Fee to apply is  NZ $300.00  
Application Forms and an International Prospectus are available from the school office.

Acceptance is subject to the Principal's approval and if there is space within the school in the relevant age group. 

 

• Copies of Passports with current Visa stamps will be required of the child and parents. 
• The child must be residing with a parent/guardian for the duration of their stay in New Zealand.
• Proof of Medical Insurance coverage for the duration of the child's stay in New Zealand is also required.  The school will not be liable for any medical expenses.

• If the child is accepted for enrolment at Newmarket Primary, all International fees are payable upon starting and a confirmation letter will then be provided for Immigration to assist with Passport/Visa applications.
