Our school currently enrols close to sixty new entrants each year. This is an extremely important time for both child and family and we are very keen to ensure this transition is as smooth as possible and rewarding for all. We are here to support you and your child. During enrolment you will be able to meet with our Principal. This is a chance to ask questions, share information and also get a better understanding of our school. We will take you for a walk around our school and hand you an Enrolment Pack.

Ring the office to add your child to the pre-enrolment list. We recommend you do this approximately 1 year before your child turns 5. If you have recently moved into the Fitzroy area and have an older child to enrol, please phone the office to make an appointment to begin the enrolment process.
