Enrolling at our school
We are delighted you have chosen to enrol your children at Buderim Mountain State School. Because of the substantial growth in the Buderim Mountain area over the last few years, it is important you refer to our enrolment management plan and check your school catchment area before enrolling. Families outside our catchment are welcome to apply for special consideration by completing an 'Expression of Interest for Out of catchment Enrolment' form, though this does not guarantee enrolment.
For information about Prep enrolments please visit our Prep enrolment page here.
There are three simple enrolment steps to follow:
1. The enrolment application
Parents / Guardians need to complete the enrolment application form which can be collected from the school office or downloaded from the school website. A separate application form must be completed for each enrolling child.
In addition to the enrolment form parents / guardians also need to provide a copy of the following documents:
- Each child's birth certificate
- Proof of residential address:
- One primary source - a current lease agreement, or rates notice, or unconditional sale agreement and
- One secondary source - a utility bill (e.g. electricity, gas) showing this same address and parent's/legal guardian's name
- A current passport and visa for any child born overseas
- Each child's most recent student report card
- Current Court Orders if applicable
- Any medical information (ASCIA Plans or Health Management Plans)
- Any information relating to a diagnosis (ASD, ADHD, etc)
All of these documents need to be completed and given to the school at least one week before proposed enrolment start date.
Once these have been received, an enrolment meeting with the relevant Sector Deputy Principal needs to be arranged prior to the proposed start date by contacting the office on (07) 5477 2777.
2. The enrolment interview
The above documents must be completed before the interview. Without the correct documents the enrolment cannot proceed. Students and at least one parent must attend an enrolment interview.
- At the enrolment meeting we will:
- discuss the details on your enrolment application
- discuss school expectations and procedures
- discuss uniforms, books and any fees payable
- discuss your child and their abilities and interests
- discuss any parent / guardian questions
- complete an Enrolment Agreement, Internet Agreement and Media Agreement.
