need info about public schools
Hi ppl,
am from india and we are planning to move to new zealand on a students visa along with my friends family who has a 10 year old female kid. We would like to know some info abt getting a school for the kid. is it easy to get admission into a public school as our funds are limited. would be thankful if you could provide me some info abt public schools (fees etc) in auckland.

Re: need info about public schools
I think it depends what visas your friends have. If temporary visas they may have to pay International Student Fees to attend any NZ school. If they have WTR visa or PR then they should not have to pay International Fees.
If they particularly require public school (by this I am presuming you mean private education?) it might be best to try and google such schools in Auckland area and approach their prefered schools directly.
As far as I know all schools in NZ ask for a voluntary contribution per year.
Sorry I can't be more specific. I am not in Auckland.
