Years 2 to 12
The prospective student may be required to attend a Diagnostic Analysis and Observation session (to ascertain whether Learning Support or ESL is required). This does not guarantee that a place will be offered.
Interviews
An interview with the family may be arranged. Interviews are normally held throughout the year in the year prior to commencement or at the time of prospective enrolment. The student/s must attend the interview with the parent/s.
All original documents submitted electronically must be brought to the interview to be verified.
(Families not requiring interviews)
All original documents submitted electronically must be brought to the Enrolments Office prior to a place being offered so these can be verified.
