Please check our enrolment criteria

Enrolment for Domestic Students at Elim Christian College is in accordance with our enrolment policy criteria and interview process. All applications received will be checked against our enrolment criteria and then in due course interviews will be arranged. An application pack with all of the aforementioned details can be downloaded from our website.

Should your application not result in an enrolment at the desired level, you may request that your application is considered for the following year. These requests are to be made by contacting the school’s Enrolments Administrator:

  • Telephone: (09) 538 0368
  • Email: enrolments@elim.school.nz

While remaining on the waitlist, you will be required to keep your application documentation up to date, e.g. current school reports etc. It is essential that you respond to any wait list review correspondence in order to remain on the wait list. Without the annual response form, your child’s application will, unfortunately, be removed from the waitlist. Any subsequent enrolment applications submitted thereafter will result in a new application being required.

New Entrants

If you are interested in your five year old beginning their education at Elim Christian College we would very much like to hear from you. We understand how important it is to make the right decision about your child’s education.

If you have already made up your mind that our school is the place to provide the very best education for your child, please visit either Campus to obtain an Application Form or you can download one from our website. If you need more information to help make your decision, please contact our Enrolments Administrator. There is also an opportunity to join an ‘Expression of Interest’ Tour which is scheduled once a month on a Monday morning at 9.15 am at the Golflands Campus – more information can be obtained by ringing either Campus.

Before your child starts school, two half-day visits, and one full day (or another half day) visit will be organised on days suitable to you. If your child needs a longer transition period, then further shorter visits can continue after their fifth birthday. The starting date will be discussed, but it is anticipated that this will be close to or on their birthday.

Come and see us! Join us in God’s special place! A place with ‘a future and a hope.’
