In Western Australia, children can start their education in Kindergarten, however compulsory schooling starts the following year in Pre-primary.
Who needs to enrol?
You need to apply to enrol your children at school for 2025 if they are:
- starting Kindergarten – Born between 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021
- starting Pre-primary, the first year of compulsory school – Born between 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2020
- starting Year 7, the first year of secondary school
- changing schools.
All children of compulsory school age must be enrolled at school and attend every day – this is the law. All children must attend school up until they are 16 years old. Sixteen and 17-year-olds must be enrolled at school or a training organisation, be employed or be in a combination of school/training/employment.
Every child from Pre-primary to Year 12 is guaranteed a place at their local public school. Places in Kindergarten may be limited at your local school, so we encourage you to apply now.
Applications can be made by completing the below form and returning it to the school with the required supporting documents either by email or handing the form to the school office. The office hours are Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays and school holidays) 8am to 4pm.
