Out of Zone Enrolment Scheme 

The Woodlands School Board of Trustees invites applications from parents who wish to enrol their children at Woodlands School for next year in Years 0 to 1. 

Enrolment at the school is governed by an enrolment scheme, details of which are available from the school office.

Application forms are to be collected from the Woodlands School Office.

The deadline for receipt of applications for out-of-zone places is 6/12/24. Parents of students who live within the home zone should also apply by this date to assist the school to plan appropriately for next year.

The Woodlands School Board of Trustees has determined that 10 places are likely to be available for out-of-zone students next year in Years 0-1. 

The exact number of places will depend on the number of applications received from students who live within the Woodlands School zone.

If the number of out-of-zone applications exceeds the number of places available, students will be selected by ballot. If a ballot is required, it will be held on 9/12/24.

Parents will be informed of the outcome of the ballot within three school days of the ballot being held.

 

 

Academic achievement above the national norm.
An individualised new entrant transition programme.  We will work with parents/whanau to develop a transition programme that suits individual needs.
We are a Positive Behaviour 4 Learning (PB4L) school.  This means we teach students social skills and our expectations around behaviour are clear and consistent.
Restorative Practice is the approach we use to deal with conflict, such as teasing or fights between peers so students are held accountable for their actions and learn from their mistakes.
A KiVA Anti – Bullying School, which means students have weekly lessons on how to be nice to others, prevent bullying, be an upstander and what to do when bullying occurs.
The school’s beautiful safe physical environment supports creative play at morning tea and lunch times.
A specialist Special Education Needs Co-ordinator (SENCO).
Our new entrant classes are a combination of a play based approach and a more traditional approach.
A bicultural environment within the school.
