School Zone
Children who live within the school home zone and are of the required age are eligible to attend Remuera Primary School. We take enrolments from 4 years of age, feel free to contact our office for Enrolment information. Enrolment packs are not available on-line.
Each year in August our Board of Trustees take into account existing and projected enrolments and make a decision on how many, if any places will be available for out of zone students at each year level for the following school year.
It is important to note that we do not hold an out of zone ballot each year. Should we hold a ballot the regulations around the ballot process as laid down by the Ministry of Education will be strictly adhered to.
Should you have any queries around either, in zone or out of zone enrolment, please email our Enrolment Officer at enrolment@rps.school.nz
Please enrol your child as soon as they turn 4.

New Entrants
New Entrant children have two visits prior to starting school. These visits will enable both you and your child to meet the Deputy Principal and Classroom Teacher and become familiar with some of the routines and expectations of the school environment. The dates of your pre-entry visits will be mailed to you. From their first day at school, new entrants remain until 3.00pm along with all other children.
If your child has an identified behavioural or learning support need, please contact our SENCO (Special Needs Coordinator) at kates@rps.school.nz, to establish a transition plan for your child.
School Tours for new students are held twice each term. If you would like to attend one of these tours please contact the school office on +64 9 520 2458
