Dates for 2026 Prep information will be confirmed early Term 1, 2025.

​

The following timeline advises families of when and how to enrol their child into Prep at a Victorian government school.

​

To start primary school in 2026, your child will need to turn 5 years old by the 30th of April 2026. Students residing within our school zone are guaranteed a place at our school, which is determined by your permanent residential address. We may also accept enrolments from families outside the designated zone, if there are available places.

 

Our school manages enrolments using the Victorian Education Department Placement Policy.

 

What you need to do:

• Use the Find my School website https://www.findmyschool.vic.gov.au/ to locate your designated neighbourhood school (local school). Your child’s local school is determined on the basis of your permanent residential address.

• Attend the Information evening or contact our Administration office (03) 9459 0732 to book a school tour.

• Application forms can be submitted to the school from  (date TBA) April 2025. Forms can be collected from our school Administration office or you can download a PDF version here.

• Submit your child’s enrolment application form by (dates TBA) July 2025.

• You will be notified of the outcome of your application between (dates TBA) July/August 2025.

• If you can provide proof of residency, or you have a child already enrolled in the school, you are guaranteed a place at the school and you are able to request an enrolment form, rather than an application form.

• Enrolled students will take part in transition sessions during Term 4, 2025.

• Your child will start Prep on (dates TBA) January 2026.

 

Enrolment applications submitted after the (date TBA) July 2025 will be processed by our school as they are received, in accordance with the Department’s Placement Policy.
