Enrolling Your Child At GHS

Enrolments
Starting at Gulf Harbour School for the first time is an important event in your families life.
In order to make the transition to school life easy and comfortable we like to meet you and your family before you start
Online Enrolment for students who move into the area who have already been at school.
Complete the online enrolment form.
Or
If you will be starting school for the first time and have a child turning 5, complete the online enrolment form and we will put them onto our pre-enrolment database. You will receive a pack in the post prior to their birthday containing a detailed letter with their pre visit dates and required documentation.
At the visits you and your child will have a chance to become familiar with the environment, routines, staff and other children.
At Gulf Harbour School we have two intakes of New Entrant children every term.
Children can only start school if they are 5 years old. It is not compulsory for children to start school at 5 and parents have the option of starting their child at school any start date up until the age of 6. Please email Gill Steel at g.steel@ghs.school.nz for more information.

Pre School Visits
Both pre school visits are generally on a Friday unless otherwise stated and run from 9.15 - 10.30am. We ask that parents stay and enjoy these sessions with your child.
The aim of this induction programme is to prepare preschoolers for school in the best possible way and to help you and your child to understand the culture here at Gulf Harbour School and what life will be like in our learning environment.
Meeting with the Junior Team Leader, Principal and class teacher, along with a school tour, is part of the induction programme.
