Enrolments
We’re delighted that you’re considering joining our school community!
Enrolment decisions in public schools are guided by the School Education Act 1999 and Department of Education policy. These decisions are based on clear criteria including your child’s age, residential address, visa status (if applicable), and educational needs.
Who Can Complete the Enrolment Form?
Under the School Education Act 1999, a parent is defined as a person who legally has responsibility for the long-term care, welfare and development of the child, or responsibility for the child’s day-to-day care, welfare and development. If you meet this definition, you are welcome to complete the enrolment form.
Application and Eligibility.
Our school welcomes students whose families live within the Boulder Primary School local intake area, as determined by the Department of Education at the time enrolment begins. If you’re unsure whether your address falls within our intake area, our friendly office staff are happy to help.
A few things to remember:
• Enrolment is based on your residential address at the time of application.
• Siblings are not automatically guaranteed a place if the family lives outside the school boundary at the time of the sibling’s enrolment.
• A separate enrolment form must be completed for each child.
Documents to Include with your Application.
It’s important that all information provided is accurate and up to date. Under the Education Act 1999 (Division 2.20), the Principal may cancel an enrolment if false or misleading information is supplied. Families must notify the school immediately of any change of address.
To help us process your application smoothly, please attach:
• Proof of property ownership where the student will reside or a copy of your current rental agreement if renting.
• A copy of your child’s Birth Certificate.
• Passports for both parents and the student (if born overseas).
• A copy of your child’s Immunisation History Statement (required by the Department of Education).
• A copy of the most recent school report (if applicable).
Parents of children vaccinated in Australia can request an Immunisation History Statement by contacting the Australian Childhood Immunisation Register (ACIR) on 1800 653 809 (free call) or by emailing acir@humanservices.gov.au.
