5 year old enrolments 

Please enrol your child at least four weeks before their 5th birthday at our school office. We recommend that you bring your child to their enrolled classroom for one visit on Friday morning, from 8.30am until 12noon, before they are due to start school. This is so that you and your child will become more familiar with the classroom routines and their new teacher before starting school full-time. Your child should be in full school uniform (you can buy this from NZ Uniforms in New Lynn) and have their stationery (New Entrant list) ready for their visit day.

Please remember to bring your child’s birth certificate.

Once you have successfully enrolled your child or children at New Lynn School we encourage you to report to the school office at 8.30am where our friendly office staff will show you and your child to their new classroom. Our compulsory school uniform, stationery, ICT website permission slips, and other information you asked for can be discussed with you then.
