Out of Local Area Applications

Students living outside the local intake area are welcome to apply for enrolment before the deadline each year (the first Friday in Week 1, Term 3). The school will consider all applications and reply however, due to pressure of student numbers, it is highly unlikely we will have spaces available. We suggest that you look at alternative arrangements at an early date so that you are aware of the options.

Applications for enrolment in 2025 for students living outside the local intake area are now CLOSED. Applications needed to be submitted by the deadline of Friday 19 July 2024 to be considered for a place. This is the same date for all public high schools in WA and follows the Department of Education’s Enrolment Policy.
