Enrolment Process
Foundation student enrolment applications are invited during the year prior to commencing school. Students residing within the Alphington Primary School enrolment zone are guaranteed an enrolment place. Students who live beyond this region are welcome to apply for a place and may be considered for enrolment. Enrolment offers will be confirmed in writing early Term 3. Students who have a sibling enrolled have priority status. Student Enrolments received for students in Years 1 to 6 will be considered if there is a vacancy in that year level.

Open Afternoon
Alphington Primary School Open Afternoon is held during Education Week each year. This is an excellent opportunity for children and parents to see the school and classrooms in operation. School tours are run by our Year 6 students, great ambassadors for the school and a personal tour with the Principal can also be arranged if you wish. Enrolment forms and information are readily available on the day.
