Parents/carers who wish to enrol their child/ren at Centenary Heights State High School as a 'sibling' are required to demonstrate that the child/ren to be enrolled resides at the same address and has a common parent record.
Enrolment of students from outside the local catchment area will be managed to ensure that the total current and forecast enrolments do not exceed the school’s infrastructure and where applicable will ensure there is an even spread of students across year levels or class groupings.
