Enrolment process
If your child turns 5 years old:
- before 1 May they can start reception in term 1 of that year.
- between 1 May and 31 October, they can start reception in term 3 (mid-year).
- after 31 October they can start reception in the following year.
Children who start reception at the beginning of the year will generally complete 4 terms of reception, while children who start reception through the mid-year intake will complete 6 terms of reception.
If our school is not your local school, you can still apply to enrol, but enrolment will only be offered if we have places available.
Visit the school enrolment section on the department’s website for more information.
Apply to enrol
Step 1: Contact our front office to organise a school tour and collect a ‘registration of interest’ form.
Step 2: Submit your ‘registration of interest’ form to our front office.
Offers of enrolment
Step 3: Offers of enrolment for the ‘start of year intake’ will be made in August. Offers of enrolment for the ‘mid year intake’ will be made in February.

You’ll need to provide:

Transition visits
Before starting school, you’ll get a letter to let you know when you can attend a transition visit.
