The role of the St Therese's School Board is "to bring together the Parish Priest, Principal and representatives of parents and teachers, in a spirit of co-operation and to provide responsible informed advice to the Parish Priest and Principal on matters concerning the school community."
FOUNDATION (PREP) ENROLMENTS
Enrolments for Prep are usually taken each year around the time of Catholic Education Week (which incorporates St. Patrick's Day - March 17th). Prep enrolment applications are open for a two week period. During this time, prospective parents have the opportunity to attend a School Open Day, as well as an Enrolment Evening (usually held on a Tuesday) where they can meet and have a conversation with School Leadership and members of the School Board. Enrolment enquiries for Prep are still welcome outside of this time, however, there are often limited opportunities at other times of the year.
Enrolments enquiries for year levels other than Prep should be directed to the School Office where the administration staff can assist you with your enquiry.
