Enrolment Scheme at David Street School
Our current enrolment zone is changing as of January 29 2024
The implementation of enrolment zones is legislated by government. You will be aware, from our previous postings, that the Ministry of Education has reviewed and allocated new enrolment zones for all Morrinsville state schools.
|
The purpose of enrolment zones is to:
|
- protect a school from overcrowding
- guarantee enrolment for families who live within a school zone
- ensure that spaces for out of zone enrolments are allocated in a fair and transparent
manner.
Students who wish to be enrolled at David Street School will be enrolled if they live within the David Street School zone. Out of zone siblings of current students enrolled at David Street School will have a protected enrolment status. In the unlikely event of out of zone enrolments being available, then these will be advertised though the newsletter and in the local paper.
|
Note: We are required by the Ministry of Education to obtain proof of address such as a utility bill (e.g phone, power, rates or tenancy agreement) as part of the enrolment process.
|
|
A link to the new David Street Zone, including a detailed description and map, is provided below.

Our Junior School are proud to present "Back to the Future"
|

|
|

|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tickets are selling fast and we have a limit per show. If you have not ordered your tickets please do so now.

Information and Sibling order forms (on the back of the information sheet) will be coming home with all children next week on Monday 4 September. If you are having a sibling photo taken please get the orders back to the office by the following Monday 11 September in time for the photos.
|
|
|
|
Online Ordering of Photos Photolife will be emailing the Access Key out to our school families as they did last year. Access Keys are individual codes you can use to order your child’s photos online. As this requires us to share information with Photolife, can you please let us know by Monday next week 4 September, if you are not happy for us to share your email address with Photolife.
|
|
Photolife have stated that they will only use it to send out the Access Key and one email reminder to place an order. After that they will delete your email address.
