Important Information for parents of Year 6 students looking to enrol for 2027
The program we have in place for student transition to high school and the process for enrolment
is a 3-step process. Whilst we provide the opportunities below, it is essential that you check our
Enrolment Management Policy if you live outside our school ‘catchment area’. Your eligibility is
based on your address and not whether your child is currently at one of the primary schools in
our cluster or area. Whilst we consider all applications, places for students ‘out of
catchment’ will be unlikely and you are advised to apply to your nearest high school. We do,
however, provide students who live out of our catchment area the opportunity to apply for our
Music Excellence Programs. It is most important that all completed forms are received as soon
after the opening date as possible to assist with the smooth transition to a high school class for
your child. A late enrolment means less time available to best consider suitable class placement
and an enrolment application received after Friday 4 December means your child is not eligible to
participate in the Year 7 Orientation Day on Tuesday 8 December.

child into Year 7, 2027.

students from other schools this year. These students will usually have the opportunity to
attend days hosted by their nearest high school.
