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.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?

18.7% No. This would be impossible in practice.
