You will need to complete an Enrolment Application form. Application forms can be obtained from the school office. Please call our Enrolment Officer on 9740 1391 for an application and to check if you are residing within the school’s designated neighbourhood boundary.

  • Birth Certificate or Child’s Passport

  • Immunisation Certificate

  • Child’s Passport (if child born overseas)

When do I have to submit the Enrolment Application Form?

Submit the enrolment form as soon as possible for the following year’s entry.

Will there be a Transition / Orientation session?

Foundation Orientation and Information sessions are held in Term 4 for prospective families. All families who have successful enrolments will be advised of dates and time of the sessions.

Do we have to live within the school zone?

All Melbourne schools have a local neighbourhood area.  The Department of Education and Training requires that schools allocate places to students residing within that area.

 

Our school zone is available on findmyschool.vic.gov.au which hosts the most up-to-date information on school zones in Victoria.

​

Students residing within our school zone are guaranteed a place at our school, which is determined on the basis of your permanent residential address.

​

Our school manages enrolments using the Placement Policy to ensure that students have access to their designated neighbourhood school and may enrol at another school, if there are available places.
