Ponsonby Intermediate Ballot Instruction
Due to large numbers of “Out of Zone” enrolments for 2021 we regrettably will need to hold a ballot.
There are 150 places available for Out of Zone students for 2021. This may vary slightly when all In-Zone applicants are finalised for 2021. Siblings of current students and siblings of former students have enrolment priority as per Ministry regulations and will be deducted from places available before going to ballot.
The ballot will be drawn under Police supervision on Tuesday 13th October 2020. Notification of ballot results will be sent by email within 5 working days after the October 13 ballot.
Unsuccessful applicants will have an indication of their order of placement on the waiting list. If parents of successful applicants decline to accept the places offered or fail to respond before Friday 30 0ctober 2020, the Board must offer the vacant places to unsuccessful applicants in the order in which their names are recorded on the waiting list.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.1% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.4% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.5% ... It is complicated
A Neighbourly Riddle! Don’t Overthink It… Or Do?😜

We are a new support group for seniors. We meet once a month to share our experience and discuss our challenges & concerns.
With the growth of our ageing population, and more seniors living alone, this group would explore and advocate/address the social, emotional and physical needs of our seniors, and promote positive and healthy ageing.
We meet on the first Saturday afternoon of the month in Mt. Roskill. Our next meeting will be 7 Mar 2026.
