Your child’s name must be on our waitlist in order for an enrolment offer to be made to you.

Please note that completion of the waitlist form does not guarantee that an enrolment offer will be made to you – enrolments are offered strictly in order of date of waitlist application, so the earlier you apply the more likely you will be offered the group of your choice.
