Transition to School Visits

We strongly recommend parents contact the office either by phone ph: 576 9175 or email office@anchoragepark.school.nz  to book a minimum of 2 ‘transition to school’ visits before their 5th birthday.  This enables you and your child to meet the teacher and see the class in action before the first day of school. These visits are held every Thursday morning from 10am to 11am. Please be aware that a parent/caregiver must stay with the child during school visits.

Accolades and Achievements - Transition to School programme

In 2015, Anchorage Park School (in partnership with Anchorage Park Kindergarten) was runner up in the Prime Minister's Education Excellence Awards for our transition to school programme. Our transition-to-school programme allows four-year-olds who will be attending Anchorage Park Primary to make several visits to the actual classroom they will eventually join. These visits can commence 1-2 terms before children turn 5, and continue until the child is ready to start school. Please contact the office to enrol your child and organise their transition to school visits.
