2027 Foundation (Prep) Enrolments
All Victorian government primary schools follow the state-wide Foundation (Prep) enrolment timeline. The timeline advises families when and how to enrol their child at a Victorian government primary school.  
You can apply to enrol your child in Foundation (Prep) in 2027 from Monday 20 April 2026.

  3. Submit an enrolment application by Friday 31 July 2026.   
Our school uses the Department of Education’s secure digital enrolment system called VicStudents. This means you can submit your Foundation (Prep) application online and receive updates through the system. If you have any questions about the online enrolment process, please contact our school. Paper enrolment application forms are also available on request.  
4. You will be notified of the outcome of your application between Monday 3 August and Friday 14 August 2026.   
5. If you receive an enrolment offer, you should accept the offer by Friday 28 August 2026.

Other Year Level Enrolments
We also accept enrolment applications for students in other year levels. You can submit a request at any time in the school year.   
Eligible students who live within our school zone are guaranteed a place, while students outside the zone may be enrolled if there are available places.  
If you are seeking enrolment at any other year levels, please contact our school for more information.  

School zones
Our school zone is available on findmyschool.vic.gov.au which hosts the most up-to-date information about Victorian school zones.
Students residing in our school zone are guaranteed a place at our school, which is determined on the basis of your permanent residential address. At this stage, our school also has additional capacity available to welcome students who are outside of our school zone, however this may not be the case in future years.
The Department provides guidance through the Enrolment: Placement Policy to ensure that students have access to their designated neighbourhood school and the freedom to choose other schools, subject to facility limitations.
You can find more information and answers to frequently asked questions on the Department’s website under School zones.
For more information
If you have a question about school zones call the VSBA Hotline on 1800 896 950.
