Enrolment

Our school can help with enrolment queries throughout the year.

Local enrolment area

Check your address on School Finder to see if it is within our local intake area. Most schools have designated local enrolment areas. Note: local enrolment areas are subject to change.

How to enrol

If you live in our intake area and would like to apply to enrol at our school, start by submitting an online enrolment application. Online enrolment is currently only available for Australian or New Zealand citizens and permanent residents.

If you are not able to apply online or you prefer not to, download the paper application to enrol (PDF 768.4KB) form. Please complete the form in English. A translated application to enrol may help you do this.

Online enrolment can also be used for out-of-area enrolment. Please note that out-of-area enrolment procedures are subject to the department’s enrolment policy.

Enrolment applications are finalised at the school.

Students must meet one of the conditions in the Distance Education Enrolment Procedures to be eligible to access this program as a full-time student.

2024 Enrolments

Enrolments are open now for 2024 K-6. You can enrol online or visit our school office for paperwork.

With the introduction of a new Enrolment Procedures Policy in 2019, there has been a need to update some of our procedures and our school enrolment policy. Processes around proof of address have been updated and there may be a need to seek further information regarding proof of address from in area applicants. A 100 point proof of address must be supplied with every local in area enrolment. Please see document below. We also ask that you complete the attached Scripture and EALD forms and return with your enrolment.

The most significant update, for our school, is the introduction of an enrolment cap. This will impact all non local enrolment applications received from 2020.
