Starting at Naenae Intermediate


Starting a new school can be a daunting prospect for children. However, parents can be assured that, even before pupils arrive here, considerable efforts have already been made to ensure that each child makes a positive start to what we expect will be an enjoyable and highly successful time with us.


Before Your Child Arrives...


  • School Visits - Senior members of staff visit the contributing schools to discuss strengths, needs and desirable peer group placements for each individual child. These staff members may also talk to the pupils about intermediate life and answer questions that are important to the children.
  • Pupil Visits - Pupils come to our school for an induction visit. They are given an opportunity to look around the school, ask questions and find out where to meet on the first day.
  • Parent Visits - Parents are invited to visit the school on Open Days and Information Evenings. Details of these are sent out separately. We also encourage individual visits by parents and are always delighted to show people around the school while classes are in action.

The First Day...


All pupils should be at school before 8.50am on the opening day of the new school year.


  • Uniform must be worn.
  • Paper and pen or pencil will be required for the day's activities.
  • Lunches must be brought from home. No lunches can be purchased at school on the first day.
  • Stationery lists will be given out to pupils during the day. These items may be purchased at local stationery outlets or at school if desired.
  • Pupils assemble in the school hall when the 8.50am bell rings. Classes are read out by the teachers and then they go off to their classes.
