Foundation 2026 Enrolments
All enrolment documents are available to download from our website. You may also contact the school and we can send the information to you via email or the post.
If you know of any families who are interested in enrolling, please ask them to contact the school.
Applications for 2026 Prep Enrolments are required to the school at your earliest convenience.
Thank you to our families who are getting the good word out in the community about our school. 'Word of mouth' is the most powerful form of advertising and consequently, we are fielding inquiries about our school.
Take the time to listen to our very own local radio station, Edge FM, for our advertisement.
RoBlox
Please be aware that children using Roblox may encounter violent or sexualised content through user-created games and chats. Some players exploit the platform to share inappropriate material and behaviours.
We urge parents to monitor gameplay, enable parental controls, and regularly check messages and friend lists.
Your vigilance helps keep our students safe online.
Uniform
Thank you to our students and the support of our families in ensuring our students are in full school uniform every day. Our students look great in our uniform, and it helps develop pride and a sense of belonging. Uniform spot checks will happen throughout the week.
Black pants and shorts are not part of our school uniform. As part of our uniform policy, all shorts and pants must be navy blue. Students arriving at school, who are not in uniform will be provided with the opportunity to wear school uniform and a phone call may be made home.
