Enrolment Process

Enrol

Approximately 12 to 18 months prior to the proposed date of entry, parents are invited by email to proceed with their child’s enrolment. At this stage you will be required to provide additional documentation including:

• health information form
• immunisation records
• latest school reports (Years 1 to 12) and NAPLAN results (Years 3 to 12)
• any other specialist reports (i.e. psychological and/or medical reports)

A non-refundable confirmation fee of $180 is payable for each student. Please note a family deposit of $300 is also payable prior to your first child’s commencement and is fully-refundable when your last child leaves the College.

Assessment and Review

Students entering Years 2 to 12 are required to undertake online academic testing, prior to attending an interview with the Head of School. Students entering Prep and Year 1 are required to complete a readiness interview. The results of these assessments, along with school reports and any specialist assessments, further informs the enrolment process.

Interview

Within three months of enrolling your child, the sub-school will contact you to arrange an interview with the Head of School. An interview with the Head of School is an essential part of the process. At the end of the interview, the Head of School will advise if an offer will be recommended to the Principal. Parents and students are required to acknowledge that they have read and accepted the Code of Behaviour and the Parent College / College Contract at the interview.

Offers

A letter of offer will be issued following the interview.

Orientation

Parents and incoming students commencing at the beginning of the next school year will be invited to attend an orientation ‘New Students’ Day’ in December before the entry year.
