Department of Education General Guidelines
Please Note: There is a high demand for placement into the Australia Street Infants School Preschool with the school consistently receiving more applications for enrolment than places available.
The school follows eligibility criteria set out in the Department's preschool enrolment procedures. If the number of applicants exceeds the places available, the school's placement panel will consider each application and make recommendations for placement according to the Department's eligibility criteria and priority set out below.
- Public preschools enrol children for one year only, the year before they start school.
- Children can enrol from the beginning of the school year if they turn four years of age before 31 July that year.
Priority is given to:
- Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander children
- children living in low socio-economic circumstances
- children who are unable to access other early childhood settings due to financial hardship.
The principal of the school will then offer enrolment in the following order:
- children living within the school's catchment area
- children living outside the catchment area but have siblings at the school
- children turning 5 in 2026
- other applicants
