Primary and Pre-Primary Registration
From January to May, schools invite families in our region to register children who will be eligible for Primary or Pre-Primary in the next school year. We encourage families to register as early as possible during the January to May Pre Primary/Primary registration period, both to help us plan for the new school year and to ensure children have opportunities to join orientation events.
To register for Pre-Primary, a child must be at least four years old by December 31 of the year they enter the program.
To register for Primary, a child must be at least five years old by December 31 of the year they start school.
● Schools will ask you to verify your child's birth date with a piece of identification, such as a birth certificate, passport, immigration documents, etc. Online Registration, you can start your child's school registration online anytime. After you submit the online registration form, your school will contact you to complete the registration process and collect additional information about your child, such as allergies or medical information.
● Online Student Registration Form Phone/Email Registration, you can also contact your local school by phone or email to register. For school contact information, visit www.avrce.ca/our-schools. How to Find Your Local School Use the “Catchment Search” button at www.avrce.ca/our-schools to search for your school using your civic address.
