Enrolment

To enquire about enrolment at Seaford Rise, please complete the Expression of Interest Form via the link below and return it to the school. Seaford Rise prioritises enrolment of students for whom we are their school of right – as in being the nearest public school to their usual home address. A pre-enrolment interview is then held with the Principal or delegate by contacting the front office team.

Government primary schools have 2 major enrolment intakes from 2024, one for children at the beginning of the year (intake 1) and one for children to start school in term 3 (intake 2).

If your child turns 5 years old:

• Before 1 May: they can start reception in term 1 of that year.
• Between 1 May and 31 October: they can start reception in term 3 (mid-year).
• After 31 October: they can start reception in the following year.

Children who start reception at the beginning of the year will generally complete 4 terms of reception, while children who start reception through the mid-year intake will complete 6 terms of reception.

Children may also be enrolled at any time during the school year when transferring from other schools.
