Enrolment Process Ferny Grove has an Enrolment Management Plan (EMP)and catchment area
All parents wishing to enrol their students will need to complete an Expression of
Interest for Student Enrolment, whether they reside in or out of catchment.
Documentation required for all EOIs is:
• Copy of student’s birth certificate
• Copy of most recent school report
• Copy of NAPLAN report
“In Catchment” families need TWO proof of residency notices, one from each source
below:
• One primary source: a current lease agreement, a current driver’s licence or unconditional
sale agreement; AND
• One secondary source: a utility bill (electricity, gas) or rates notice showing this same
address and parent’s/legal guardian’s name.
Once the Expression of Interest form and all supporting documentation is received,
applicants will receive a letter from the school within two to three weeks stating that
the application is Accepted, Rejected or placed on a Waiting List. Parents of
students accepted into Ferny Grove SHS will receive an enrolment pack with all
documents required for enrolment.
Enrolment Process Tonight, parents of students who have been accepted for enrolment will be given an
enrolment pack and can book an enrolment interview.
Parents who haven’t submitted an expression of interest form will be given one to
complete but will not receive an enrolment pack or be given an interview time until
their application has been reviewed against our Enrolment Management Plan.
For interested parents and students not able to make it tonight, two after school
tours will be held on June 14 & 19. Further tours will be arranged as needed in
semester two.
