Prep Enrolment process 2025 

The Department of Education (DE) has released a new 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 Rowellyn Park Primary School.

The new timeline will apply for children starting Foundation (Prep) in 2025. All government primary schools will follow the new timeline in 2024 to support Foundation (Prep) enrolments for the 2025 school year.

You can find information and resources about the new timeline, including factsheets, at: Enrolling in Foundation (Prep). You can also download the Foundation (Prep) Enrolment Information Pack for Parents/Carers for the 2025 school year from the Starting School webpage which will be available later in Term 1.

You will be able to apply to enrol your child in Foundation (Prep) 2024 at Rowellyn Park Primary School from 24 April 2024.
