Enrolments

Preferential

The school is open to all Students, with a connection to a Parish Community. A preference card, signed by a Priest which states that at least one parent has an established connection with a Parish, must be received by the school for each child wishing to enrol. These cards are available at the school for your convenience.

An Enrolment Contract Form can be filled out which parents sign indicating that they consent to their child participating fully in the Religious Education Programme and to pay Attendance Dues to the Catholic Integrated Schools Office. The Preference Card and Enrolment forms are then presented at the school.

Non Preferential

A limited number of Students with non-preference status may be on the school roll.
Parents are able to place their child’s name on the waiting list at any time. Students will be offered placement as vacancies occur, and in accordance with the school’s policy.

Enrolment Procedures
We encourage parents to pre-enrol their child as early as possible, preferably before the age of 4 including younger siblings of Students already at the school.

Pre School Visits
Two pre-school visits are required before a child begins school. Please contact the school to confirm a suitable time.

Attendance Dues


Attendance Dues are charged by the Hamilton Catholic Diocese in order to meet the cost of upgrading the school i.e. new buildings/maintenance. School attendance dues are $308.00 per child a year. The Catholic Integration Schools Office will send out invoices at the beginning of each year, and payments are to paid directly to that office. Cheques are to be made out to: R.C.Bishop of Hamilton - Diocesan Schools A/C.
Automatic payments can also be arranged with the Catholic Integration Schools Office.
The Diocese also asks for a $20.00 donation towards supporting Catholic Character of our schools. This money is used for teachers professional development, and support for schools to develop and enhance Catholic Character.
