Foundation 2025 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 2025 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 an increased number of inquiries about our school.

Take the time to listen to our very own local radio station, Edge FM, for our advertisement. 

New School Song

We have updated the School Song. It sounds terrific. You will hear it played at our assemblies, on EDGE FM and when waiting on the phone. You will see us in the Cinema too. 

ETRPS Transition Program

Students will transition to 2025 year levels at the following times for our Step Up Program. 

Day 1 (Tuesday) – 19th November  9 -10am

Day 3 (Tuesday) – 3rd December  9 -11am

At these times students, will develop comfort and understanding in what 2025 may look like for them.

Cultural Day

The 2024 Cultural Leaders worked hard this term to put together our Cultural Day Celebration. Students will participate in a variety of traditional games from different cultures. Many students will dress up to show their heritage and parade their outfits at an assembly in the Centre. Further information to follow. 

End of Year Concert

Our students will showcase what they've been learning in Performing Arts at a special concert on Wednesday 11th of December in the Centre. This will start at 12p

We welcome our families to attend this concert to celebrate a fantastic year of learning. There will be a special farewell to the Year 6s at the conclusion of the concert. Kiwanis will present Terrific Kids awards too. We will also find out our 2025 School Leaders. 

Planning for 2025

We understand that at times families may move for a range of reasons. If you think you may not be attending ETRPS next year, please email us as this will help support us with planning for 2025.

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. 

Whole School Assemblies

All ETRPS parents/families are invited to join our whole school assemblies that occur fortnightly on Wednesdays at 2:30pm. Please enter through the front office of the school and sign in upon arrival. Enjoy our awards, highlights and success with us.

Inclusion, Respect, Responsibility, Resilience, (Academic Excellence)
