Enrolments for Entry (Yr 7) Class
The best way to see TC’s purpose ‘To challenge the status quo, so that everyone is empowered to learn’, in action is to join us on a school tour.
We conduct our tours during the week, commencing at 9.30am and running for approximately 1.5 hours.
Tours for Year 7, 2027 & 2028
Tours for current Primary School students looking for an Entry (Yr 7) place are conducted all year long. If the current tours are booked out, you can wait until the next round of tours are available for bookings.
Grade 6 students currently attending Independent, Homeschool, or Catholic schools, can contact TC to obtain their Year 6-7 Placement Request form from Term 2 each year.
Tours for current secondary school students
Tours and the enrolment process for students who are already in Secondary School wanting to transfer to TC can be viewed and booked via the Year 8-12 enrolments page from Semester 2 each year.

Priority Order of Placement as per DE requirements
Eligible children and young persons have the right to be admitted to their designated neighbourhood government school, regardless of capacity.
In circumstances where schools do not have sufficient accommodation to accept all students who apply from outside their school zone, schools must manage enrolment applications in accordance with the following priority order of placement:
students with a sibling at the same permanent address who are attending the school at the same time
all other students in order of closeness of their home to the school.
In exceptional circumstances, a student may be enrolled in a school based on compassionate grounds. This is an overarching consideration and does not form part of the priority order of placement. Further information is available below under ‘Exceptional circumstances – compassionate grounds’.
