General
Pasadena Intermediate School serves the Pt Chevalier, Waterview, Gladstone, Edendale, Bayfield, Grey Lynn, Freemans Bay, Newton Central, Richmond Road, Westmere and Mt Albert districts. We also welcome enquiries regarding our programmes and courses and enrolments from other areas.
Pasadena Intermediate School does not have a closed roll at present, but the Board and the Ministry of Education are in discussions about establishing a Home Zone for Pasadena Intermediate School.
The school is always open to prospective families. Pasadena staff and students will be available to meet with prospective enrolments and their parents/caregivers wishing to inspect the campus, view the facilities and to discuss programmes and courses.
Appointments to discuss the specific educational needs of children can be made by contacting the school.
To allow prospective parents/caregivers and students to come to know our school, we have arranged a number of activities and events.
