Thank you for your interest in our kura. Our Bethlehem School Board has identified that there will likely be up to 20 spaces for Out of Zone student applications in 2023. Fifteen places will be in the mainstream programme with likely ten places in Year 0/1, five places in Year 3 and five places in the Rumaki unit. To make an application for one of out-of-zone places for next year, please complete an Out of Zone Application Form located HERE or from our school office. The number of in-zone enrolments may impact the number of available positions. If the number of out-of-zone applications exceeds the number of places available, students will be selected by ballot.
