To help make starting school a fun enjoyable experience we have provided a few tips to help make this special event go smoothly. Follow this link and print as needed.

Tips for Starting School. 

   
  

 School Visit Dates

Once you enrol your child, you  will receive a letter advising of the school visit dates and when the pre-entry meetings will be held.   


 Pre-Entry Meetings for Children Starting Term 1 2013

 

 

 

 

 

Please pick one of the class visit dates through the school office (along with the Pre-Entry Meeting)

 

 

 

New Entrants are given the opportunity to visit their new class before starting school.  These are held from 8.55am to 10.30am.  You are welcome to stay for the playtime break with your child.  All preschool visitors must have an adult stay at school while they are visiting.  We recommend attending consecutive Wednesday/Thursday if possible. 

 

Please choose two dates closest to your child's start date, and ring the office to book in.

These can be paid by:

1. Cash or cheque to either the classroom teacher or the office.

2. EFTPOS at the office.

3. Directly into our bank account. 

4. Automatic Payment

 

 

 

School Uniforms

 

For students attending Hillsborough Primary the wearing of school uniform is compulsory.

 

A full selection of uniform items are available from the School Uniform Centre, 553 Remuera Road, Remuera or order online at www.schooluniformcentre.co.nz

 

Please label all uniforms.  A Lost Property box is located in the corridor beside Room 4.  Please encourage your child to check through this if they have lost a uniform item.
