Pukekohe High School’s Enrolment Evenings
Pukekohe High School’s Enrolment Evenings: Monday 7 August and Tuesday 8 August between 4.00pm and 7.00pm, and Thursday 10 August between 4:00pm and 8:00pm
The Board has approved 30 out of zone places for next year’s Year 9. Applications for these 30 places will close on 30 August 2017. If there are less than 30 applications by this date, all applicants will be enrolled. If the number of applications exceeds 30, the successful applicants will be determined by a ballot as is required by Ministry of Education regulations. Those regulations prioritise siblings of current students, next siblings of past students, next children of former students, next children of employees and Board of Trustees and then all other applicants.  If required, that ballot will be held on 6 September 2017.  The enrolment policy, including a description of the zone, can be found under “Enrolment” on the school’s website.
 
In 2019, out of zone enrolments will only be accepted for siblings of current students.

Year 8 orientation at Pukekohe High Thursday 7 December from 9am to 12.30pm.
