ENROLMENT PROCEDURE
Application for enrolment for prep/foundation students is made by contacting the school office from the February of the year prior to the student starting school.  The office staff will arrange a booking for an information session for the applicant.  During this session prospective families can enjoy a tour of the school and will be presented with information packs about the school and enrolment process.  

​Please see further details below and refer to the School’s Enrolment Policy and the Catholic Education Office's - Enrolment Information for Prospective 2022 Foundation (Prep) Students at Catholic Primary Schools in the City of Ballarat.  

For enrolment for all other year levels please contact the school office on 03 5332 7680.

IMMUNISATION HISTORY STATEMENTS
When enrolling a child in primary school, parents must provide the child’s Immunisation History Statement from the Australian Immunisation Register. This shows whether a child has been immunised against diphtheria, tetanus, polio, measles, mumps, rubella, whooping cough and haemophilus influenza type B. Failure to provide the Immunisation History Statement could delay your child’s enrolment to St. Patrick’s Primary School.

​AGE
Only children who will be five, on or before the 30th April of the year they enter Foundation will be accepted.

​ELIGIBILITY
The School has set priorities to ensure Catholic children living within the parish have a place available to them in the school.
  • Catholic children in St. Patrick’s Parish living on the east side of Gillies Street.
  • Catholic children outside the parish, provided the applicant has been made aware of the parish school within their area, and has been encouraged to attend that school.
  • Non-Catholic children with a history of Catholicity in the family.
  • Non-Catholic children.

​TRANSFER FROM ANOTHER SCHOOL
Once a place is determined to be available and enrolment forms have been completed a transfer form is required for any children transferring from another school. Copies of reports would also be appreciated to help the teacher assess the child and help the child settle in to school life.  Immunisation History Statements from the Australian Immunisation Register must also be provided when children are enrolled from other schools. When the child is transferring to another school, parents will be issued with a transfer notice to be taken with them. Parents will also be asked to complete a ‘Continuity of Care’ transition form for their child’s new school.
