=﻿PRE ENTRY VISITS: =


 * These can be arranged leading up to the day your child starts at Pukekawa School.
 * We are flexible about these visits but suggest at least four visits, usually two a week. We like our visitors to come any day as long as you have made contact with the classroom teacher please.
 * We suggest at least two visits between Monday and Thursday and then another two visits on Fridays.
 * This ensures that your child is familiar with both of the teachers in Room 4.
 * Dee works from Monday to Thursday and Tammy works on a Friday.
 * During the visits the children participate in a range of classroom actvities.
 * They are able to become familiar with the school environment, their teachers and their peers.
 * They will learn where to hang their bags, put their lunchboxes and drink bottles, find out where the toilets are and to experience time in the playground.
 * Your child will become familiar with the class room routines and expectations.
 * These visits allow parents to meet and talk to the teachers and other parents.

ENROLLING: On your first school visit you will be given an enrolment pack with the necessary information.
 * Please ensure that the enrolment and subsequent forms in the pack are completed by your child's second visit.
