Enrolment Places
Ormiston College offers an exceptional curriculum from Prep to Year 12 with three major intake levels commencing at the beginning of the academic year in Prep, Year 5 and Year 7. These intake levels coincide with critical developmental and educational points within a child’s school life. Naturally, families may move districts, states or countries, or their child may not be achieving at his or her current school, prompting parents to make enrolment enquiries outside the key intake levels. Subject to availability, the College is open to applications for other year levels and timeframes.
Enrolment Preference
Enrolment preference is given to applications made on behalf of Christian students. Enrolment preference is offered in the following priority order:
- Children of current Ormiston College staff
- Siblings of students currently attending Ormiston College
- Children of Alumni
- Date of Application
Where particular circumstances apply, the Headmaster may exercise discretion in determining enrolment preferences.
Enrolment Offers
Because enrolments are received many years before the actual date of attendance, the College asks for confirmation of parents’ intention to proceed with the enrolment approximately two years before the student is due to commence. All students and parents/guardians attend an interview with the Headmaster or his representative prior to commencement. Acceptance of a student is at the discretion of the Headmaster.
Waiting List
If the enrolment list is full when the application is received, the child’s name is placed on a waiting list for the appropriate year. Enrolment is then considered as vacancies become available. Every effort is made to transfer a student from a Waiting List to the Enrolment List but it may not be possible to do this. Places may become available a short time before the date for which enrolment was requested, occasionally as late as January in the year a student commences.
Schedule of Fees
The current fee schedule can be downloaded here.
Payment of an enrolment confirmation fee and a signed Conditions of Entry Form is required to accept a place at Ormiston College.
It’s never too early to enrol
We open our application process from a child’s birth and encourage applications as early as possible to avoid disappointment. Enrolments are received several years before the actual date of attendance, so the College asks for confirmation of parents’ intention to proceed with the enrolment approximately two years before the student is due to commence.
