Enrolment Priorities
The following hierarchy of priorities has been established for the consideration of enrolment applications at each school when enrolment applications exceed available spaces.
Primary School
- Baptised Catholic children who are members of the designated local parish communities.
- Siblings of children already attending the primary school.
- Baptised Catholic children from other parishes who cannot obtain places in their local parish primary school.
- Baptised Catholic children whose parents/guardians seek to enrol them in a parish primary school outside their own parish but who can obtain places in their own parish primary school.
- Non-Catholic children whose parents/guardians desire and are committed to a Catholic education.
Early Learning Centre (ELC)
Our local Early Learning Centre is located at St Thomas Aquinas in West Belconnen.
Children who are turning four (4) before 30 April and:
- are baptised Catholic who are resident in the Parish, with siblings who attend a Catholic System primary school in the Parish.
- have siblings who attend a Catholic System primary school in the Parish.
- are a baptised Catholic resident in the Parish.
- are a baptised Catholic resident in a Parish of the Region.
- have siblings who attend a Catholic System primary school in the Region.
- are a baptised Catholic and resident outside the Region.
- whose families support the mission and ethos of Catholic education.
All children who attend a Catholic ELC will be given preference for Kindergarten enrolment at a Catholic primary school.
