In order to apply for a place at Fountain College, it is necessary to complete an Application of Enrolment and submit it with the relevant documentation.

Please email the completed form and supporting documents to enrolments@fountain.wa.edu.au or submit in person at our Ferndale Campus located at 12 Karri Way, Ferndale WA 6148.

Please note that all applicants will be charged a $50 non-refundable fee.

Successful applicants from Year 3 – Year 12 are invited to sit an entrance exam on a scheduled date by the college.

The exam will have a reading, writing and numeracy component with generic questions at a difficulty level corresponding to your child’s age.
Students who meet the minimum education outcomes may then be invited for an interview with their family.

The interview is a critical part of the enrolment process. One or both the parents must attend the interview with their child. It is a great opportunity to discuss important details about our school and for parents to ask any questions they may have.

Students applying for Kindergarten and Pre-Primary will be invited to an observation session. One or both parents are required to attend.

Following the entrance exam and interview, applicants will either receive an offer of enrolment, a place on the waitlist or a declined letter.

All offers will be made in writing and will be accompanied by the Contract of Enrolment. The contract is to be signed by both parents/guardians and returned to the college. If the college does not receive a response within 4 weeks, the position will be offered to the next person on the waiting list.

In order to secure a place, parents will be asked to pay a non-refundable enrolment fee of $100. Once the fee has been paid and all the supporting documents have been received, an acceptance letter will be sent to the parents.

All students from Year 1 to Year 12 will be invited for Orientation Day. This will help students familiarise themselves with the school environment and the school code of conduct and procedures.
