Enrolment of Kindergarten students
Children may be enrolled in Kindergarten at the beginning of the school year if they turn five years of age by 31 July of that year. Documentation providing proof of age is required.
Enquiries for kindergarten enrolment may be made during school hours. Applications for enrolment will be accepted from the commencement of Term 1 of the year prior to enrolment.
The Public Health (Amendment) Act 1992 requires parents to provide documented evidence of a child’s immunisation status on enrolment at school. Parents have the right of not having their children immunised. However, in the event of an outbreak of a vaccine preventable disease, non-immunised children will be required to remain at home for the duration of the outbreak.
All applications for both in area enrolments and sibling out of area enrolments will be accepted on a first in basis.
A wait list will be created for all non-local students. The initial order of the wait list will be on date of complete lodgement of forms and accompanying documentation.
Early in Term 3, the out of area committee will review the waiting list to determine placement positions offered. The committee will then look at the wait list in terms of the criteria outlined above.

Early enrolment of students who are considered to be gifted and talented
When a student is being considered for early enrolment in Kindergarten, the school will carry out a comprehensive evaluation of intellectual functioning, academic skills and social-emotional adjustment. This will be undertaken by the school counsellor and may incorporate advice from registered psychologists. Input from the student’s parents will also be considered.
A review of current research reveals a consensus that, for successful outcomes, a child should be within 6 months of approved entry age.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Enrolment of students with special needs
Enrolment applications for students with special needs will be considered within the context of the school’s capacity to meet those needs, specifically through:
- availability of funding, specialist teachers and consultancy services
- modification of buildings and/or facilities
- provision of specialised equipment
- access to special transport services.
The decision to enrol a student with a disability, and with what level of support, will depend on a number of factors including the student’s educational needs, the expressed desires of parents and caregivers, the capacity of the school to provide the above support services and the availability of appropriate support services in alternative locations.
An appraisal of the student’s needs will be carried out by the Principal, in consultation with parents and caregivers, the school counsellor, relevant district special education support staff and other educational, health or medical professionals as determined appropriate.

Enrolment of non-Australian citizens
