Enrolment at Whatawhata School!
Our Enrolment scheme/Out of Zone Enrolments…
We have an enrolment scheme in place due to the rapid growth in our area.
Enrolment at the school is governed by an enrolment scheme, details of which are available from the school office. The board has determined that 14 places are likely to be available for the out of zone students throughout next year. The exact number of places will depend on the number of applications received from students who live within the school’s home zone.
Because the board operates an enrolment scheme, it is required to fill any vacant out-of-zone places by ballot in cases where there are more applications for enrolment than there are places available.
Ph 07 889 7780 or email office@whatawhata.school.nz
Any queries can be sent to principal@whatawhata.school.nz
Details relating to the subsequent enrolment periods are as follows
For Term 3, 2025 application close is 19th May (if any)
For Term 4, 2025 application close is 18th August (if any)
Spaces for each enrolment period are not guaranteed and will depend on in zone enrolments. Number of spaces will be notified prior to each enrolment period.
