The Ministry of Education has requested that Tauhara College Board of Trustees adopt an enrolment scheme. This will be effective from 2025.

Tauhara College welcomes applications from students, both In Zone and Out of Zone. We have an enrolment scheme that determines who can enroll at the school.

All students living in the school zone are eligible to attend Tauhara College (unless they have been excluded from another school). Students living outside the school zone can apply through a Ballot process. A Ballot is held annually to determine which of these students can be given the right to enroll for the following year.

The guidelines for development and operating of enrolment schemes are issued under section 11G (3) of the Education Act 1989 for the purpose of describing the basis on which the Secretary’s powers in relation to enrolment schemes will be exercised.

To be considered for the ballot, a completed enrolment form along with your In Zone documentation i.e., a power bill, rates notice, phone bill, needs to be submitted to our school office by 4pm, three working days prior to the ballot date.

If you have any feedback or questions regarding the zone, please refer to the Ministry of Education website or email us on info@tauhara.school.nz. The proposed Zoned areas are attached, they will be confirmed once all information comes to hand.
