NEW ENROLMENTS

If you would like to visit our school feel free to call us or email office@peninsulaprimary.school.nz to arrange a pre enrolment tour of our facilities.

Some hints for parents to help your child settle well into our school and begin the learning process as soon as possible. 

Ensure that you purchase the required stationery upon enrolment. 

It is critical that you keep the school informed with up to date contact phone numbers for family and caregivers.  This is in case we need to contact you urgently. 

Feel free to contact the Principal directly if you have any concerns regarding your child’s education. granth@peninsulaprimary.school.nz

Take opportunities to communicate with your child’s teacher about their progress or any other issues concerning your child. 

Be involved with your child’s learning. Talk with your child about school and encourage your child to see learning as an opportunity. 

When you enroll your child please let us know if your child has any particular gifts or talents or any special needs. 

If your child is Maori we would also like to know the hapu and iwi of your whanau.

THE 'RIGHT START' AT PENINSULA PRIMARY.

In 1997 we introduced a new reception room programme with the aim of giving the children the right start to their school life.  By developing a cooperative relationship with the parents we intend to give the children a good grounding in the basics of readiness to read and write.  Parent sessions will be held to assist parents with their role in the programme.  You are welcome to visit our reception rooms.  Please don’t hesitate to ring the office and make an appointment. Your child may attend school 6 weeks prior to them turning five years old, for one morning a week. This is designed to give your child an opportunity to become familiar with their new learning environment and transition them easily into school.  The designated day for this is Tuesday morning from 11.30a.m. to 12.30p.m.  Once you have enrolled, you will receive a letter advising you of the dates for the visits.  You are required to stay for the visit. When enrolling a child/children,  Parents/Caregivers are required to show a birth certificate or passport to verify date of birth.  You are also required to supply a copy of your child's immunization schedule which is available from your family Doctor. Children who are enrolling from countries other than New Zealand must have documents supporting their immigration status and N.Z. Residency application.
