Enrolment - Foundation 2024

Foundation Enrolment Procedures
Footscray City Primary School has experienced increased interest from prospective families in recent years, resulting in us being under enrolment pressure.  We have implemented the Department of Education and Training (DET) enrolment strategy to assist us to manage this process.  This means we accept enrolments for:

• Students for whom the school is the designated neighbourhood school.
• Students with a sibling at the same permanent address who are attending the school at the same time.

​
​Parents with children already attending Footscray City Primary School:

• Contact the school office on 9687 2826 to request and enrolment pack.

​Families new to Footscray City Primary School:

• Register for one of our Foundation Information Sessions. If you reside within the designated neighbourhood area we will send you an enrolment pack and offer you a place on a small group tour. 
• Complete the Enrolment Form and provide this to office staff with your child’s Immunisation Certificate, a copy of their Birth Certificate and two forms of proof of address. These include a rates notice or lease agreement and a utility bill​.

Confirming Enrolment
Enrolment will be confirmed on receipt of the Enrolment Form for:

• Students for whom the school is the designated neighbourhood school (confirmation of current residential address will be requested).
• Students with a sibling at the same permanent address who are attending the school at the same time.
