The Department of Education (DE) has released a new statewide Foundation (Prep) enrolment timeline. 

The timeline advises families when and how to enrol their child into Foundation (Prep) at a Victorian government primary school, including Trawalla Primary School.

The new timeline will apply for children starting Foundation (Prep) in 2024. All government primary schools will follow the new timeline in 2023 to support Foundation (Prep) enrolments for the 2024 school year.

You can find information and resources about the new timeline, including factsheets, at: Enrolling in Foundation (Prep). You can also download the ‘Foundation (Prep) Enrolment Information Pack for Parents/Carers for the 2024 school year’ from the Starting School webpage (available from 24 April 2023).

You will be able to apply to enrol your child in Foundation (Prep) 2024 at Trawalla Primary School from 24 April 2023.

Each year children are invited to attend the Trawalla Primary kinder to school transition program.

The aim of the transition program is for students to:

• experience Trawalla Primary School routine
• be positive and happy about starting school
• meet other students
• meet the teachers

The transition program also enables new families to come in and experience the educational opportunities and facilities our small school can provide.

Each visit will include reading and literacy activities with maths sessions on the longer days. 

​Students will need to bring a drink bottle, fruit for fruit break at 10am, morning tea and lunch for the longer days. All students need to wear a broad brimmed hat. 
​Please contact the Principal, Kate Morcombe. (Phone: 5349 2047) for more information.
