2027 Prep Enrolments

When enrolling your child into a Department of Education school, your child must have turned 5 by the 30th of April in their Prep year. We encourage parents to come on a school tour the year your child is in 4 year old Kindergarten. Please book via our  Book A Tour page. 

All Victorian government primary schools follow the statewide Foundation (Prep) enrolment timeline. The timeline advises families when and how to enrol their child at a Victorian government primary school.
