WEST MELTON SCHOOL ENROLMENT SCHEME

West Melton is undergoing rapid change with the residential developments of Gainsborough and Preston Downs.  In order to avoid overcrowding or the likelihood of overcrowding, the Board of Trustees has adopted an enrolment scheme which has been approved by the Ministry of Education.

Under this scheme, students will be enrolled if they live within the home zone described below.

"The North boundary is the Waimakariri River.  From the river south along Chattertons Road to Dawsons Road, along Dawsons to Newtons  to Knights Road corner, along Knights to Hoskyns Road corner, along Hoskyns to West Melton Road corner, south along West Melton Road to Railway Road, along Railway Road to a point aligning with Hayes Road, along this line and Hayes Road to Painters Road, from the Hayes Road / Painters Road intersection a direct line through to Henderson's Road and along Henderson's Road back to the Waimakariri River.

The boundary points along Halkett Road are 2.1km from the intersection of Sandy Knolls Road (up to Rapid Number 3210880) and along Railway Road 1.3 km from the intersection with Sandy Knolls Road (up to Rapid Number 5860680)."

The enrolment of out of zone students is governed by the provisions of the Education Act 1989.
