Online Application for Enrolment
Enrolment Procedure
The enrolment application procedure is a relatively simple process. Completing an online application for enrolment is the preferred way to apply, however parents can contact the school for an information and enrolment package.
The online enrolment form makes it particularly easy for parents as started applications can be returned to at any time within 30 days for completion, without having to restart the application.
Once the enrolment form and supporting documents have been submitted to the school, an enrolment interview involving the parents and child will be organised with the Principal or the Assistant Principal.
4 Steps to Enrolment

Inclusive Education
As a Catholic school, St Augustine’s is committed to fostering a culture of inclusion that responds to the educational needs of students, regardless of their abilities, backgrounds and aspirations. This commitment to inclusive practices is supportive of both Church teaching and legislative requirements.
Under the Commonwealth Disability Discrimination Act (1992), the Disability Standards for Education (2005) seek to ensure that education is made accessible to students with disabilities. The Standards address enrolment, participation, curriculum, student services and the elimination of harassment and victimisation.
Enrolment of students with special needs is facilitated through the Enrolment Application and Support Procedures for Students requiring Significant Educational Adjustments, managed by Catholic Education Services’ diversity team. This process encourages all participants in the education process (parents, students, teachers, school leadership, CES Diversity team representatives) to share as partners, the responsibility for successful outcomes for all students. The process seeks to reveal and clarify the characteristics of the learner and to assess the adjustments for accessing learning and the implications of these for the school, the family and the student.
St Augustine’s school community has access to Catholic Education’s advisory teachers, speech language pathologists, psychologists, occupational therapists, learning support teachers, student counsellors and Indigenous education officers, and can also collaborate with a range of external agencies to enhance support of the individual needs of students.
