1. Zoning
  • All students, according to the Education Department zones (www.findmyschool.vic.gov.au), fall within the zone for the The Lake Primary School will be accepted.  

  • Priority will then be given to siblings of children who are concurrently enrolled.

  • After satisfying The Lake Primary School zoned and sibling requirements, out-of-zone enrolments will be accepted if spaces are available. Students will generally be accepted in order of closest permanent residential address. Consideration for out-of-zone placements will occur in the month of August. In exceptional circumstances, compassionate grounds can be part of the enrolment eligibility.

  • The Lake Primary School Enrolment Policy is consistent with the Department of Education ‘Trainings Placement Policy’ which can be viewed on our Policy page

2.  Attend our Prep Information Evening
  • Simply attend our Information Session to meet us.    Should you miss this date, please call the office to arrange a quick tour of our school

3.  Transition Program
  • We typically have 3 transition sessions for your child to familiarise herself/himself with the school.   Session times (9.00am to 11.30am):

  • Late Term 3

  • Early Term 4

  • Late Term 4  (in conjunction with the Statewide Transition Day)

4.     Purchase uniforms
  • During Term 4 you will have the opportunity to order uniforms for your child.    Uniform items (with a logo) are supplied by the office.   

5.  Start your educational journey with us
  • Over the Christmas holiday break your child's Prep teacher will be in contact with you to timeslot your child in for a Prep Assessment.   This assessment usually takes approximately 1.5 hours and helps the teacher understand where your child is at academically.   These assessments are done during the first week of school prior to your child commencing classes. 

In the meantime, check out our video tour of the school (that was made during COVID) and read our Parent Information Handbook for further information about our School.......
