Our School Zone

All schools have a designated neighbourhood zone which can be view at findmyschool.vic.gov.au

Students residing within our school zone, based on their permanent residential address, are guaranteed a place at our school. Due to our current enrolment capacity, we are unable to accept enrolments from outside our neighbourhood zone.

Our school manages enrolments using the Placement Policy to ensure that students have access to their designated neighbourhood school and may enrol at another school, if there are available places.

2025 Foundation (Prep) enrolments

The Department of Education (DE) has a statewide Foundation (Prep) enrolment timeline.

The timeline advises families when and how to enrol their child into Foundation (Prep) at a Victorian government primary school, including Teesdale Primary School.

You can find information and resources about the enrolment timeline and procedures at: Enrolling in Foundation (Prep)
or download the Foundation Enrolment Timeline 2024-25 document below under 'Other Enrolment Documents'.

In addition to the key dates set out in the above enrolment timeline link, Teesdale Primary School will be hosting a 2025 Foundation Enrolment Information Evening on Tuesday 4th June at 6pm at the school.

Enrolment Process and Documentation

Prior to a student being enrolled at Teesdale Primary School, parents or guardians are requested to complete an Expression of Interest webform to determine eligibility.

Once eligibility has been confirmed, prospective families will be emailed all the required enrolment documentation.

Enrolment inquiries that do not meet the enrolment criteria will also be advised via email.

Students eligible to enrol at our school are required to provide the following documents to proceed with enrolment:

• Student Enrolment Form – students commencing Foundation or transferring from interstate, overseas or an independent school will need to fill out an Enrolment Form. Students transferring from a Victorian Government School will have their enrolment data electronically transferred between schools.
• Copy of Birth Certificate
• Copy of Immunisation Certificate – official document from Australian Immunisation Centre
• Residential Address Check

For the wellbeing of your child and the convenience of the school staff, please ensure that the following information on the enrolment form is kept up to date:

• Home and work telephone numbers
• Address
• Family Doctor
• Emergency contact numbers

It is also necessary for parents to ensure that any custodial information is presented during enrolment. Custody papers must be presented to the Administration Officer and the school will also need to keep a copy of this documentation – this is kept strictly confidential. The custodial parent is asked to ensure that all necessary accurate information is given when enrolling.
