In Zone Enrolment

Howick Intermediate strictly follows the Ministry of Education guidelines for school entrance. Students of intermediate age who live within Howick Intermediate School's zone are entitled to attend the school in accordance with the Enrolment Scheme. Details of this scheme and the definition of "living in zone" can be found above.

Applications for in-zone placements can only be accepted once the student resides in the school zone with their parent(s) or legal guardian. It is important to note that "living in the school zone" requires the student to have their main permanent residence within the zone.
