Sherwood Primary School

At Sherwood Primary School we have a strong tradition of offering an excellent, quality educational package to all our students. This quality package is available to students from other countries.

We are very experienced with international students. Our teachers are all native English speakers but come from all over the world. Our teachers have taught in many other countries. We are very used to working with children and families from other cultures. Our principal who is an experienced educator both in New Zealand and International Schools has published a thesis on education and living in other countries.

We are a lead information communications and technology school. Other teachers and educators from New Zealand and overseas visit us to observe us, we are recognised as one of the best examples of how to use computers with children in the country.

The one barrier to entry to our school is that long term pupils must have their parent or legal guardian, who they usually live with, with them while in New Zealand; this is a requirement under New Zealand law. Please read the PDF article about this on our web site.

If you would like to contact an agent but do not have one please contact: http://www.unz.co.nz/ If you would like to know more about entry requirements to new Zealand and New Zealand Schools please visit: www.immigration.govt.nz .
