Enrolment

How do I enrol my child?

The school admits children on their 5th birthday. Parents/guardians are asked to fill in an enrolment form. If possible please complete this enrolment form a few months before your child turns 5 so we can plan our staffing and classroom allocations. You will be given information about the school and the student will be given a class and teacher.

How do I help settle my child?

We encourage parents to bring their child along before their birthday, so they can spend time in the classroom and become familiar and confident about the school.  Please contact the office to make the necessary arrangements. We have booklets and other material available that give additional advice. You can bring your child along to Positive Assembly at 9am on Friday mornings. Our New Entrant teachers are experienced and skilled at settling new students into school.

What is the school donation?

This money that is used to help pay for classroom materials, such as paper, paint, glue and for other equipment used in classroom activities.

$80 - for one child, $100 - for a family per year.

You can pay once a year or term by term. A reminder is sent out in the second term to those who have not paid. If there are difficulties in paying this, please contact the school office.
