Enrolling at Seven Oaks

We warmly invite you to follow this process to discover if Seven Oaks is going to be the right fit for your child. 
To start the process, please complete and submit this simple no-obligation online form. Alternatively, you can download, complete and return a physical version here: pre-enrolment form. On receipt of the form, we will invite you to visit the school and meet our friendly principal, Jeremy, at which point you can find out more about the school and ask any questions. Jeremy will show you around and explain our educational approach. You will then be invited to complete a formal Student Enrolment Form and proceed through our enrolment process.

STEP 1

Complete a no-commitment application form and have a preliminary meeting

    * All fields are required

    STEP 2

    Come along for an experience day

    If the meeting goes well, and you complete the Student Enrolment Form, the next step will be for your child to spend a trial day with us for a personal Seven Oaks experience and evaluation.

    If the right class for your child has a waiting list, we will keep in touch with you via email newsletters, and then contact you when a space becomes available, to invite you to proceed with enrolment. If your child is under the age of four, registering your interest now will put your child higher up the waiting list. You will be placed on our database and will receive our email newsletters and notices. We will automatically contact you when your child reaches four to find out if you wish to proceed with enrolment.

    o   If you don’t live in New Zealand and are interested in enrolling your child at Seven Oaks, please contact our Principal.

    SCHOOL FEES

    Seven Oaks School fees for primary and intermediate students in 2022

    $12,750 per year including GST

    Our school fees are 30-50% lower than most independent schools because we believe this kind of education should be accessible to more families. Fees cover all tuition, stationery and most project materials. Non-compulsory outings such as swimming, skiing and camp, some options and personal project materials are invoiced separately. These typically add up to a few hundred dollars per student per year.

    Scholarships

    A limited number of scholarships are available each year to students from lower income families, to assist with the cost of school fees.

    For existing students, applications must be received by January 31st each year. For prospective students, applications must be received with the enrolment application forms.

    Specific income criteria and other conditions apply. As the fund is limited, some eligible applicants may not get a scholarship. All decisions will be made by the board at their sole discretion and will remain confidential. Personal information divulged in the application form will be used solely by the board members who are selected to consider applications and only for the purpose of considering the application.
