Catchment area
Because of enrolment growth, and the capacity of our buildings, it is necessary to restrict enrolments from out-of-catchment to ensure in-catchment students are able to enrol in the future.
All students who live within the catchment area are automatically eligible to enrol in their local school, however eligibility criteria needs to exist to regulate out-of- catchment enrolments in new schools. Out-of-catchment applications are initially placed on a waiting list until In-catchment numbers are established. Offers to those out-of-catchment are notified by mail in Term 4.
An Enrolment Management Plan (EMP) is developed to ensure that the new school retains capacity to serve the community for which it is built. An EMP documents the eligibility criteria for students to enrol at the school who live outside of the school's catchment area.
Enrolments
2026 Enrolment applications will be accepted in Term 2 of 2025 with all supporting documentation, as per the Enrolment Checklist. Enrolments will not be accepted without all required paperwork.
Please note - sibling enrolment applications are assured without catchment criteria.
Enrolments can be handed in at Corporate Services, or emailed to our enrolment officer Vicki O'Sullivan at vosul6@eq.edu.au.
