Starting school Your child can start Kindergarten at the beginning of the school year if he/she turns five on or before 31 July in that year. By law, all children must be enrolled in school by their sixth birthday. Local enrolment area
Most schools have designated local enrolment areas. The School Finder shows our local enrolment area. Note: local enrolment areas are subject to change. How to enrol Contact us when you’re ready to enrol your child in our school. You may need to attend an interview with the principal. There you can discuss any medical conditions or other special circumstances before your child starts school. We may also complete a risk assessment on the enrolment.

Out-of-area enrolments As outlined in the department’s enrolment policy, our school may accept enrolments from outside our local enrolment area if places are available. We will assess applications for non-local enrolment on a case-by-case basis. Temporary visas and international students For information about eligibility and forms to complete, visit the Temporary Residents Program.
