Silverstream School

Enrolment Information

Silversteam School operates an Enrolment Zone Policy.

Our school operates within a Ministry of Education approved ‘zone’. For your clarity:

• Families living within the zone will always be welcome at our school
• We will not be enrolling any new out-of-zone families for the foreseeable future

Families of children currently at school and who live or have shifted out of zone:

• The children of that family who already attend school may stay
• At this stage siblings may continue to enrol at the school. We will be reviewing this on a regular basis and potentially this could change if pressure on the roll continues.

Why do we need to carefully manage this?

To ensure we have the best possible all-round learning environment for our children. More specifically to ensure: class sizes remain reasonable, our school environment is always safe, and that no unnecessary pressure is placed on our teaching staff as well as financial and other resources.

We are confident this can be well managed while continuing to offer our children a safe and fantastic school environment – both indoors and out.
