Enrolment & Transition

Enrolment @ Camperdown College:

To begin the enrolment process, please contact the office at your preferred campus to arrange an enrolment meeting (Junior Campus 5593 1438, Senior Campus 5593 1617). We see this meeting as a wonderful opportunity to get to know you and your child. It allows us to understand your family’s needs and work together to create the best possible start to your child’s educational journey at our school.

For students entering Prep and Year 7, we are committed to ensuring the smoothest transition possible. We offer information sessions, school tours and engaging transition taster programs designed to help students and their families feel confident, prepared and connected to our school community.

Details about these events are communicated via our Facebook page, school newsletter and local newspapers.

We understand that circumstances such as relocation may necessitate enrolments at various times throughout the school year. However, our preference is that families seeking enrolment from neighbouring schools aim to do so at the beginning of a term (Junior Campus) or semester (Senior Campus). This helps ensure a smoother transition for students—academically, socially and emotionally—by aligning with key points in the school calendar. Of course, if circumstances necessitate an immediate enrolment, we are more than happy to discuss and make appropriate arrangements to support your child’s transition.

We look forward to welcoming you into our school community.
