Home - Information Centre - Enrolment

ENROLMENT

There are two types of enrolment. One involves students starting school for the first time, usually from a Kindergarten. There is usually plenty of notice regarding this enrolment and we offer a transition programme involving visits to the new class prior to commencing. It is helpful to our planning processes if parents complete the enrolment form well before your child’s start date. 

The second type of enrolment involves families moving into the area or changing schools. Once again, the earlier we know of this move the better planned we will be for your child. The Principal prefers to spend time with parents prior to the child starting and to discuss the learning programme and needs of the student(s).

​

JUNIOR PRIMARY ENROLMENT INFORMATION

Our transition process from pre-school includes three organised visits that ensures the smooth transition from pre-school to school.

During these visits your child will visit their new class allowing them to become familiar with the classroom setting, be introduced to their new  teacher and meet new friends. The visits help to make the first experiences of school positive and rewarding.

A letter is sent to each child inviting them to visit the school and informing you about what to expect during the visit.  

Parents/Caregivers are invited to an information session at the first transition visit. This is a time to find out information about our school and meet new families.
