​​​​​​Enrolments 

Starting school is an exciting time for students and parents. The first step is to determine when your child can commence their Prep year by visiting the Department of Education’s Prep-ready calculator.

 

Prep Enrolments 2024 - 2025

For families who live within the school catchment Prep enrolments for 2025 open on Monday April 22, 2024 and close Friday September 13, 2024 at 3:00 pm for families who live within the school's catchment. Enrolment forms may be collected from the school office between the hours of 8:00 am and 3:00 pm or downloaded from the school website. Completed enrolment forms and associated information (copy of birth certificate, proof of residence, ICT agreement and media permission) need to be returned to the school office by September 13, 2024.

Families who do not live within the school catchment wanting to enrol in Prep 2025 are invited to complete an Expression of Interest for Out of Catchment Enrolment. These forms are only available from the School Office from Monday April 22, 2024 and need to be completed by Friday June 21, 2024. Families who do not reside within the local Sunshine Coast area are asked to contact the school office for further information.

Prep Information Sessions

Held on Monday November 4th at 9:30am and Tuesday November 5th at 6pm, are Prep information sessions and are for all Prep parents who have not had a child attend Prep in the previous two years.  These sessions are designed to answer all your questions about Prep.  These sessions are suitable for parents only due to the information given and the duration of the session (two hours).  For more information contact our administration office on (07) 5477 2777.


Prep-transition Morning

As part of the Parent Induction Session held on the 4th and 5th of November,  you will be invited to select a morning in late November for your child to participate in a prep transition morning.  The morning session will run from 9.30 am until 10.30 am and will be held in one of the Prep Classrooms. This experience is designed to give the children a taste of Prep and offer them the opportunity to discuss this experience with you. This morning session is an essential element of the Transition Process and will provide the opportunity for your child to meet other children coming to Prep in 2025 as well as become a little more familiar with the school.

Parents are requested to remain with their children during this session so that they can share the activities and experience of the Transition morning.​


Local kindergarten affiliations

The Prep/Year 1 Deputy Principal works closely with kindergarten programs in our school catchment area to provide information about the enrolment process to parents. Some kindergarten classes within walking distance will visit our school, while other kindergartens will instead receive a visit from a Buderim Mountain State School staff member.
