Out of Zone Enrolment
|
Redwood School has a zone in place.
Students living in zone may enrol at Redwood School. Students living out of the zone who wish to attend Redwood School must apply to enrol when there is a ballot. We currently have space for 15 New Entrant students only who fall into priority category 6. Please have your application to the school office by 9am Monday 30th March 2026. This is only for students who wish to enrol in the period 4 July 2026 -15th December 2026. Contact the office, [email protected] if you have any questions. The enrolment scheme means that children from families who live inside the zone have the right to be enrolled at Redwood School. All other enrolments will be subject to enrolment scheme legislation. An enrolment scheme must establish the following order of priority for the selection of students who would live outside the Redwood School zone.
