Starting School

We understand that starting school is a big deal. We believe that it is vital that your child’s transition to school is well planned, well organised and well considered. We personalise the process for your family and do our very best to get to know your child before they start at school.
This process includes:

• A meeting with the Principal or Deputy Principal (AFTER you have been accepted as an inzone or out of zone 
• A tour of the school
• Submitting enrolment forms and providing necessary documentation
• School visits (if starting for the first time)
• Welcome pack including info about Ag Day

Brookby School operates a Ministry of Education-approved enrolment scheme.
