EnrolmentWe can help you with your enrolment enquiries anytime throughout the year.
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. Our school accepts all children from within our local zoned intake area (see map below). A non-local application can be made for students not living within the local zoned intake area. Because students start new work in their new class at the beginning of the school year, it would be an advantage for your child both socially and educationally, to start school as soon as possible in the new year.
