ENROLLING NOW FOR KINDERGARTEN 2025
How to enrol
5 Steps to enrol for Kindergarten 2025:
1. Submit an online application using the online enrolment portal (both local and out of area enrolments)
If you would like to take a tour of the school before applying online please visit our School Tours page.
2. Book an enrolment appointment
We will be holding enrolment interviews at the school from May-October 2024. Once we have received your online enrolment application, we will send you information on how to book an appointment. Bookings can also be made online here: https://www.schoolinterviews.com.au/code/eq56e
3. Attend the Enrolment Appointment with your child
This is a friendly "getting to know you" session, where your family can meet the Principal and you can ask any questions you have. One or both parents may attend. This is also an opportunity for you to tell us about your child and to discuss any additional needs. The Principal will be checking your enrolment documents at this session so please ensure you bring them to the school office with you on your interview day, so the admin team can sight and copy them to attach to your application.
The school will ask you to bring the following enrolment documents to the appointment:
Completed Enrolment Form (if you applied online, we will print your application)
Proof of address document (Council Rates or Lease Agreement - original to be sighted at the office)
Your child's Birth Certificate (original to be sighted at the office)
Your child's Passport or Citizenship Certificate (if both parents born overseas)
Australian Immunisation Certificate
Most recent preschool report (if available)
Any medical reports or assessments relating to your child's additional needs (if relevant)
In addition, visa holders will be asked to bring:
Passports (original to be sighted)
