Please read the Policy below for any enrolment enquiries outside our Zone.
It is not a first in, first served placement. Places are only available to out of Zone enrolments after all locals and siblings have been enrolled. Out of Zone requests are taken until the end of term 2, by which time we have a more accurate indication of available spots. Enrolments are prioritized by distance from the school using the Find My School website. (Link below)
All of Wallan, including Wallara Waters Estate are outside of our zone area, the policy will apply to students from this location.
