Step 1. School tour (casual chat & tour with the Principal) 

We usually do these at 10 a.m. on weekdays but have slots for 1 p.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays, or Fridays. Please let Candace know your preferred days, and she can check the principal's calendar.

Step 2.  Completing enrolment forms

As soon as you decide to proceed, you can click the link to Enrol online via EDGE Learning. Follow the instructions and upload the required documents to the electronic enrollment application. 

After completing the online application, please email your school or kindy and copy admin@tyndalepark.school.nz to let them know that we will contact them as part of your child's enrolment application.

Step 3. Enrolment Interview with the Principal

Note: When completing the online enrolment application, required enrolment documents AND supporting documents need to be uploaded as enumerated below:

1. Enrolment Interview Form - completed and signed

2. Credit Agreement Policy - completed and signed

3. Correction Policy - completed and signed

4. Supporting Documents:

   1. Eligibility to study in NZ (i.e., NZ Birth certificate or NZ Passport showing NZ citizenship,  Student Visa, Resident Visa, etc).

   2. ID - Birth Certificate or Passport.

   3. Previous school reports, or if coming from kindy, a general report from kindy.

   4. Immunisation certificate, or a letter from the parents if none.

Tips: 

• Check for typos (e.g. email addresses are in correct format)

• It is important that you use a different email address for each person or each caregiver.

• It is also important that you fill in the blanks, especially those with an asterisk. 

• When uploading documents, use PDF documents for easier upload (Individual documents have a maximum size limit of 8MB & there's a maximum total limit of all attached files of 64MB).

Please feel free to contact Candace at the office if there's anything else she can do to help.
