Enrolment


Enrolments for the 2025 school year are now open.

Dear Families,

Choosing the right school for your child is a big decision. At Waubra Primary School, we offer an excellent teaching and learning program, as well as many other learning experiences outside of the classroom.

We have three full time classroom teachers who are supported by our wonderful education support staff.

 

Waubra Primary School provides a variety of specialist subjects. Each student attends Physical Education, Art, Technology each week and Japanese classes fortnightly. Students attend MARC Van (mobile library) each fortnight with a focus on Humanities, History, Geography and Civics & Citizenship Studies.

 

The Department of Education has released a new statewide timeline for enrolling in Foundation (Prep) for the 2025 school year.

Parents and carers can apply to enrol their child at Waubra Primary School from the start of Term 2, 2024 (Monday 15 April 2024). Parents and carers are asked to apply to enrol by Friday 28 July 2024

Our school follows the Department of Education’s Enrolment Policy for the enrolment, placement, and transfer of students.

Prep/Foundation Enrolments

Starting school is an exciting time for children, parents and carers. We want to help make the enrolment process as easy as possible for you.  Each year, the department releases the Foundation (Prep) Enrolment Information Pack for Parents/Carers, with information packs available from the beginning of Term 2 for students commencing foundation/prep the following year. These information packs, and other important information, can be found on the Enrolling in Foundation (Prep)page of the Victorian Government website.

 

Parent Payments

Under the Department of Education and Training's Parent Payments Policy, Victorian government schools are required to provide transparent information to their school community on voluntary parent/carer contributions.

The following documents outline the voluntary parent/care contributions at our school.
