Coming Up at FWPS

2024 Prep Enrolment Information Sessions and School Tours (various dates)

In May, our school’s leadership team and Prep Transition Coordinator will host a series of Enrolment Information Sessions and School Tours for families of students commencing Prep in 2024. These sessions will outline the vision and values of our school, and how these drive the program of learning – academic, social and emotional – for our students.

 

Immediately following the Information Session, we will conduct a school tour, co-hosted by our current Year Six Captains (student leaders), Prep Transition Coordinator and school leadership team. On these tours, we will take you through the school buildings and grounds, as we describe the program of learning and experiences offered at FWPS.

 

We warmly invite all interested families to attend, who currently reside in our enrolment zone or who will reside there at the time of enrolment. For families living outside our zone, please contact your local school to discuss enrolment options.

 

2024 Prep Enrolment Information Sessions and School Tours will run on the following dates and times:

  • Tuesday 2nd May 2023, 9:30am to 10:45am
  • Tuesday 16th May 2023, 9:30am to 10:45am
