Please ensure you also upload or bring a copy of your child’s most recent semester report and NAPLAN results (if applicable).

Eligible applicants from Year 3 to Year 12 will be invited to sit an Entrance Exam on Saturday, 28 June 2025.

The exam includes reading and numeracy components, designed to match your child’s age level. Students who meet the minimum education outcomes may then be invited for an interview with their family.

For Years 1–12
The interview is a critical part of the enrolment process. One or both parents must attend the interview with their child. This is a great opportunity to discuss important details about our school and for parents to ask any questions they may have.

For Kindergarten & Pre-Primary
Children applying for Kindergarten or Pre-Primary will attend an Observation Day. At least one parent must attend with the child.

Following the interview and entrance exam (if applicable), you will receive one of the following:

• Offer of Enrolment
• Placement on the Waitlist
• Notification of Unsuccessful Application

All offers will be made in writing and will include a Contract of Enrolment. This contract must be signed by both parents/guardians and returned to the college with all supporting documents. If the college does not receive a response within 2 weeks, the position will be offered to the next person on the waiting list.

6. Acceptance

To confirm your child’s place, you must:

• Pay a non-refundable enrolment fee of $100
• Return the signed contract and all required documents

Once these steps are completed, we will send you an official Confirmation of Enrolment Letter.

All new students from Year 1 to Year 12 will be invited to attend Orientation Day. This helps students become familiar with the school environment, expectations, and daily routines.
