We welcome enrolment applications from students for both Year 7 and Year 8 levels. As we are a zoned school, the Ministry of Education requires your whanau/family to be living in the Highlands Intermediate School zone to attend.
For new Year 7 students starting at the start of each school year, we have an enrolment process which starts in July of each year. We invite current Year 6 students to enrol as either In Zone or Out of Zone.
Contributing schools receive prospectus packs at the end of term 2. These are given to Year 6 students. For Out of Zone applicants there are different priorities. Depending on your relationship with Highlands Intermediate will determine what priority your child will be put in. More information is in the Zone Document.
Below is the timeline for the Enrolment Process:
