OUT OF ZONE ENROLMENTS FOR 2025/2026

 

Due to ongoing roll growth at Kaipaki School, enrolment continues to be governed by an enrolment scheme.

 

In 2025/2026 there will be 4 enrolment periods, with the first enrolment period from 6th October 2025 to 16thDecember 2025.

 

The board has determined that:

  • Up to 6 places in Year 0-3

are likely to be available for out-of-zone students in the second enrolment period. The exact number of places will depend on the number of applications received from students who live within the school’s home zone.

 

For students seeking enrolment within the first enrolment period, the deadline for receipt of applications for out-of-zone places is Friday 12th September 2025. 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 Tuesday 16th September 2025. Parents will be informed of the outcome of the ballot within three school days of the ballot being held.

 

Details of the second enrolment period are:

Monday 2nd February 2026 to Thursday 2nd April 2026

Deadline for receipt of applications: Friday 7th November 2025

Date of ballot: Tuesday 11th November 2025
