When to register?

You register your child in the registration year in which they turn 3. That year runs from 1 October to 30 September, and then repeats in the same rhythm.

Tips for registering on time

Enter your child's date of birth above and you will immediately see your registration period. Then set an email reminder so you don't miss anything.

Does it matter when I register within the period?

No. It does not affect your chance of placement whether you register on the first or the last day of the period. Just make sure you register your child before the registration period ends.

Registered too late?

Too late? You can still register your child in the next registration period, provided the date of birth still falls within the registration year. Is your child already 4? Then contact your preferred school directly.
