Out of Zone Applications
Out-of-zone applications are subject to the selection procedure specified in the Education and Training Act 2020.
The Act states that first priority must be given to students who meet the criteria for enrolment in an approved special programme run by the school. Second priority must be given to siblings of current students. Third priority must be given to siblings of former students. Fourth priority must be given to children of former students. Fifth priority must be given to children of board employees or board members. Sixth priority must be given to all other students.
The Board reserves the right to decide if there are spaces available and if so, how many spaces are available at any particular year level.
Out of Zone Ballot Dates for places in Term 3 and Term 4 2026 – currently not open
Further out-of-zone ballot dates may be held for places in Terms 3 and 4 2026. The forms for these Ballots may be available after each previous ballot is finalised and the Board decides if there will be places available.
