Yr 6 to Yr 7 Transition
All parents of students in both Year 5 and Year 6 are advised to attend all information sessions for their local government secondary schools. This process will assist the final selection of p[acement. Final placement into a government school is in accordance with the guidelines of each individual college and Department guidelines. An information evening will be held for all parents to further outline the process. Parents who are planning to send their children to private schools need to follow the process specific to that school.
