STATEMENT OF UNDERSTANDING
THE WAITLIST AND ADMISSIONS PROCESS
This agreement should be read in conjunction with the Orana Steiner School Enrolment Policy and Procedure
It is important that your choice of Steiner Education for your child be an informed choice. We therefore strongly recommend that parents/ guardians (or custodial parent/guardian in the case of a single parent family) attend a School Tour in the year or term leading up to the requested year of entry into the school.
I understand that camps and excursions are a compulsory part of the curriculum.
Enrolling parent/guardian(s) must complete the Application Form and forward it to the Admissions Officer. A Privacy Statement and this Statement of Understanding regarding the conditions of enrolment must also be signed and returned to the school. Copies are provided to parents for ongoing reference.
On receipt of an Application form the student’s name will be placed on the waiting list until a place becomes available. In making an offer of a place, the School will take into account and give priority to:
An active willingness to support the School in working with Rudolf Steiner’s indications of the development and education of the child.
Siblings of children already enrolled at Orana. This includes those who are from ‘blended’ families.
Children from families who have had involvement in organisations inspired by Anthroposophy.
Children who are being transferred from other Steiner Schools.
Children of previous students.
Grandchildren and children of all staff.
Support ‘out of school’ participation in cultural activities which are compatible with the philosophy of Orana.
Support and commitment of enrolling parent/guardians to an involvement in the community life of the school.
Once a placement at the school becomes available, the Admissions Officer will make contact to invite you to an initial interview. Additional interviews may be required in certain circumstances.
Date of receipt of this form along with all relevant school/other reports is deemed to be the ‘date of application’.
This application is valid for three (3) years. After this time, if you have not been offered a place, you may contact
the school to extend your position on the waiting list for a further two (2) years. Orana Steiner School reserves the
right to change its policies at any time.
FEES
All parents/guardians must establish a formal financial agreement with the school. This is a legally binding contract.
A non refundable Enrolment Fee* is due prior to the student commencing at the school.
Fees are payable within 14 days of receipt of account. Administrative charges are applied to overdue accounts. We also offer Monthly and Fortnightly direct debit.
In the event of the withdrawal of a pupil from the school one term’s notice in writing is required. A fee* will apply for each student where one term’s notice in writing is not received.
*See Orana Steiner School’s current “Fee Schedule” or “Explanation of Fees & Charges” for amount payable.
EXPECTATIONS OF PARENTS/GUARDIANS
According to section 11 of the Education Act 2004 (the Act), parents must ensure that the child attends the school on every day, and during the times on every day, when the school is open for attendance; and every activity of the school (including attendance at an approved educational course) that the school requires the child to attend.
Parents/guardians are expected to fully support the aims of the school with respect to the philosophy and education.
Parents/guardians are required to attend Parent/Teacher Evenings once a semester.
Continued enrolment is dependent upon adherence to the school policies and procedures, including the school’s Behaviour Management Policy.
The school has the power to suspend, exclude or otherwise discipline students in accordance with the school’s policies, and it is the responsibility of parent/guardians to be fully conversant with these policies. In the event of a child being withdrawn from school as a result of any disciplinary circumstances, fees for the current term will not be refunded.
Please note: Lodgement of this application form does not constitute enrolment, nor does it guarantee enrolment at
a future date.
I/We have read, understand and agree to the above conditions for admission to the Orana Steiner School.

PRIVACY STATEMENT
The School collects personal information, including sensitive information about pupils and parent/guardians before and during the course of a pupil’s enrolment at the school. The primary purpose of collection of this information is to enable the school to provide schooling for your child.
Some of the information we collect is to satisfy the School’s legal obligations, particularly to enable the School to discharge its duty of care.
Certain laws governing or relating to the operation of schools require that certain information be collected. These include Public Health and Child Protection laws.
Health information about pupils is sensitive information within the terms of the National Privacy Principles under the Privacy Act. We may ask you to provide medical reports about pupils from time to time.
If we do not obtain the information referred to above we may not be able to enrol or continue the enrolment of your child.
The School from time to time discloses personal and sensitive information to others for administrative and education purposes. This includes to other schools, government departments, medical practitioners and people providing services to the School, including specialist visiting teachers, sports coaches and volunteers.
Personal information collected from pupils is regularly disclosed to their parent/guardians. On occasion, information such as academic and sporting achievements, pupil activities and other news or photos owned by the school may be published in School newsletters, magazines and on our web site. If you do not agree to photos, information or personal work of your child being published as detailed above you must advise us now.
Parent/guardians may seek access to personal information collected about them and their children by contacting the School. Pupils may also seek access to personal information about them. However, there will be occasions when such access is denied. Such occasions would include where access would have an unreasonable impact on the privacy of others, where access may result in a breach of the School’s duty of care to the pupil, or where pupils have provided information in confidence.
From time to time the school engages in fund raising activities. Information received from you may be used to make an appeal to you. It may also be disclosed to organisations that assist in the School’s fund raising activities, solely for that purpose should the school ever appoint such an organisation.

We may include your contact details in a class list. If you do not agree to this you must advise us.
If you provide the School with the personal information of others (such as doctors or emergency contacts) we encourage you to inform them that you are disclosing that information to the School and why.
