Kindergarten Enrolment 2018—It’s time to enrol
Do you have a child starting kindergarten in 2018? If so, it
is important that they have enrolled to allow us to start
planning for their successful transition to big school next
year. This allows us to liaise with preschools and parents,
and ensure we keep you informed of upcoming events and
relevant news. It is also important for our school to get an
idea around student numbers for 2018 which helps with
school planning. Please complete an enrolment form and
return to the school office by the end of term.
Enrolment forms are available from the school office or by

Non-local Enrolment
The Department’s Enrolment of Students in Government
Schools: A Summary and Consolidation of Policy 1997
requires each school to set an enrolment ceiling, which is
based on the school’s permanent classroom
accommodation and includes a buffer to cater for local
students arriving throughout the school year. This
requirement ensures that there is a place for every eligible
child at his or her local school.
Under this policy, Bellbird Public School has currently
exceeded its ceiling and will most likely be unable to
take non-local enrolments in 2018.
While special consideration for non-local enrolment
(including siblings) can be made where there is available
space, they cannot be accepted when the school has
reached its enrolment ceiling. In the meantime, if you
intend to apply for enrolment as a non-local placement at
our school in 2018, we ask that you complete a non-local
enrolment application which can be obtained from any
school office. These must then be handed to your local
school by July 1st 2017. They will then forward details to
our enrolment panel for consideration, with an outcome
reached by 1st September 2017 once a more accurate idea of
potential student numbers in 2018 are known. If you have any
concerns or queries please see Mr Anderson.
