Enrolments

Thank you for your interest in enrolment at Burrendah Primary School. Due to the high demand for places within our school, the Department of Education has designated Burrendah Primary School as a local intake area school. Students and their family must live within the school boundaries at the time the enrolment commences.  Please refer to the map showing school boundaries.

When lodging an application for enrolment, the following original documentation must be provided (Copies will be taken at Reception and attached to the Application for Enrolment).

  • Proof of ownership of the property by the parent/s where the student will reside is to be provided.  This may be a recent rates notice from the local council. 
  • Where the family is in a rental property, a copy of the tenancy agreement, with a twelve (12) month minimum duration from the time the enrolment commences would be required. Please note:
    • If the rental agreement is a private arrangement then a Statutory Declaration authorised by a Justice of the Peace will be needed to verify the place of residence.
    • The renting of a room in a property is not acceptable for enrolment unless the owner of the property has official approval from the City of Canning to use the property for this purpose.
  • A further two (2) pieces of evidence as proof of residence within our local intake area is required. One of these must be a utilities account or connection notice (ie, electricity or gas account) the other can be a current driving licence with the current address, a non-mobile telephone/internet account, a current bank statement showing address, contents insurance or removalist documents.

Out of Local Area Application

Each year, our school will consider out of local area (formerly cross-boundary) applications.  Out of local area, admission will only occur if there are places available.  The outcome of this consideration will be advised in writing.
