Welcome to our amazing school! Due to COVID-19 restrictions we're unable to hold school tours, but we hope you enjoy this virtual tour conceived and created by our school captains. Click on the school logo link above.
Starting school is an important step in a young child's life and 'Is my child ready for school?' is a question asked by many parents.
Your child can start Kindergarten at the beginning of the school year if they turn five on or before 31 July in that year. By law, all children must be enrolled in school by their sixth birthday. School tours have been postponed until further notice. Keep an eye on the school calendar on our home page.
When to enrol
Kindergarten enrolment begins around March the year before your child will start Kindergarten. The school year starts in late January after the summer vacation period. Unfortunately we are not able to accept enrolments from families living outside our catchment area.
