Enrolment Info

How to Enrol Your Child

To enrol your child simply come to school where the office staff will give you all the paperwork you need to complete.

It is very important that you bring along a Birth Certificate or Passport in order to enrol your child.

“When a five-year-old child is enrolled, or children from outside New Zealand are enrolled at school, it is a legal necessity to produce a Birth Certificate or Passport”

Please supply the school with:

  1. Telephone numbers of both parents.

  2. Address where a parent may be contacted.

  3. A friend’s telephone number or address so that a friend may be contacted.

This is important for your child’s safety!

Please notify the school if there is any change of 1, 2 or 3.

If you would like to organise a school visit for your child then please call the office to arrange a time and we will make sure you get a tour of the school led by one of our student leaders. The Principal or Deputy Principal will also be available to answer any questions you may have.

OUR FEES

All our programmes are OSCAR approved by the Ministry of Social Development and thus parents may be able to apply for Work and Income OSCAR subsidies towards the cost of their childcare. Eligible families could pay as little as $2.00 per day.

Come and visit us onsite to discuss your requirements.

Resource Teachers of Literacy

There are three Resource Teachers of Literacy based at the Glen Taylor School Literacy Centre.  Kate Pavarno, Jill Tyler and Anna Thompson.

We take referrals from 29 schools in the local area and provide short, intensive, supplementary support to those learners with the highest literacy needs across the cluster.

Our goal is for students to make and maintain accelerated progress and be able to work at or near the level of their peers so they can benefit from effective classroom teaching.

We work directly (one-on-one, or in small groups) or indirectly (by supporting and collaborating with the classroom teacher). Usually, we utilise a combination of approaches. We are able to provide up to approximately 45 sessions of support.
