Enrolment Procedure

How to Enrol

Our preschool enrols children the year before they start school. Children can enrol from the beginning of the school year if they turn four years of age before 31 July. The EOI form is below or you can collect a paper copy from the school office. You can drop the completed EOI form to the School Office or email it to Seven Hills West-p.school@det.nsw.edu.au

EOI Preschool Waitlist Application

Completing the EOI form does not guarantee your child a position in our preschool. In early Term 4, a panel will go through all Expression of Interest forms that have been submitted and will begin to offer preschool enrolments through a priority system.

Priority is given to:

  • Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander children
  • children living in low socio-economic circumstances
  • children who are unable to access other early childhood settings due to financial hardship.

The principal of the school will then offer enrolment in the following order:

  • children living within the school's catchment area
  • children living outside the catchment area but have siblings at the school
  • other applicants

Once a placement has been offered, parents and carers will need to complete a Preschool Enrolment Form and provide proof of immunisation and identification documents. 

Our school can help with enrolment queries throughout the year.

Getting prepared

The NSW Department of Education Welcome to Preschool  guide will help make the start of your child's learning journey a positive and happy experience. It contains handy hints to help prepare your child for Preschool. 

After your child's enrolment is confirmed, you will be invited to attend an enrolment interview to help us get to know your child, as well as an orientation session.
