How to enrol

New Enrolments

Please be aware that our school is at near capacity. We are a zoned school. When at capacity, we can only enrol students within our school zone. 
It is therefore essential to contact our Front Office to complete an enrolment enquiry form. One of our Senior Leaders will then establish if vacancies exist at your child's current year level.
If no vacancies exist, you will be redirected to your zoned school and offered a place on our waiting list.

Registrations received outside of the enrolment time frame will need to contact the Department for Education directly and may need to be put on a waiting list.

Once your child has been allocated a place in a High School you will receive a student secondary school allocation pack from the enrolling school in mid-August. If you are not satisfied with the outcome of your school allocation, you can request a review of the allocation process. Information regarding the review process and timelines will be included in the allocation pack provided by the enrolling secondary school.

Alternatively, if you do not want your child to attend their allocated school, you can approach other secondary schools directly. If they have the capacity, the school may accept your request for enrolment.

Enrolment at our school is dependent on:

  • proof of your child's identity and date of birth

  • any family law or other relevant court orders

  • proof of the student's residential address.

Your application for year 7 will only be finalised by the secondary school once they have received your child's completed enrolment form and satisfactory proof of identity and residence.
For help filling out the enrolment form, please contact the school.

Overseas and non-permanent residents

Students who are not permanent residents of Australia may enroll in a South Australian government secondary school, subject to the conditions determined by their visa sub-class.
These documents need to be provided to the school when submitting your child's registration.
