Enrolment process

Visit the school enrolment section on the department’s website for more information.

Mid-year intake from 2024

From 2024, there will be a mid-year intake into school.

From 2024, if your child turns 5 years between 1 May and 31 October, they can start school in either:

  • term 3 of the same year
  • or term 1 the following year.

Students enrolled through a mid-year intake will complete 6 terms of reception.

Apply to enrol

Step 1: submit an enrolment request form by 30 June. You can get a form from our front office.  

Step 2: submit your verification documents by 31 August. You’ll need to provide: 

  • a copy of the child’s original birth certificate or passport 
  • residency visa, if you’re a non-Australian resident 
  • proof of address (for example utility bill or lease agreement).  

Transition visits

Before starting school, you’ll get a letter to let you know when you can attend a transition visit in either term 2 (for mid-year enrolments), or term 4 (for beginning of year enrolments).
