Ponsonby Intermediate Ballot
Due to large numbers of “Out of Zone” enrolments for 2020 we regrettably will need to hold a ballot.
There are 140 places available for Out of Zone students in 2020. This may vary slightly when all In-Zone applicants are finalised for 2020. 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 the ballot.
The ballot will be drawn under Police supervision on Tuesday 15 October 2019.
Notification of ballot results will be sent by mail and email within 5 working days after the October 15 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 1 November 2019, the Board must offer the vacant places to unsuccessful applicants in the order in which their names are recorded on the waiting list.

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
