What Happens Next?
After lodging an Enrolment Application, you will receive an email verifying lodgement of your application. Parents will then be contacted and invited to attend an enrolment interview. It is important that your child/ren who are enrolling attend this interview.
Prep Enrolments
A first round of interviews with parents/caregivers of prospective students for the following year will be held in Terms 1 & 2 of each year. Please ensure that you have lodged your enrolment application and paid application fee for Prep by this time. The school will contact you to arrange an interview time. It is important that your child as well as both parents, where possible, is able to attend the enrolment interview. After all Prep interviews have been held, offers of a place in our Prep program will be made by email. Orientation meetings will be held in October to assist you and your child in preparing for Prep.
To enrol in Prep, children must be aged 5 years by 30 June in the year of proposed attendance. The table below is a guide to when children are eligible to enrol.
Other Enrolments
Enrolments for other grades can be made at any time of the year dependant of space available. Once your enrolment application has been lodged and application fee paid, you will be invited to attend an enrolment interview. It is important that your child or children who are enrolling attend this interview, with both parents if possible. Confirmation of enrolment will then be made within a few days of the interview.
If there are not enough places available, students will be placed on a waiting list. Parents will be contacted when a place becomes available.
Confirmation of Enrolment
Upon receiving a letter of placement offer, you will need to confirm your enrolment by completing a Confirmation of Enrolment Form and confirmation fee of $100 paid. This form will need to be returned to the school office prior to commencing school.
You are most welcome to visit our school prior to the formal enrolment process. Please telephone and a time can be arranged for you to do so.
