For students residing within our school zone according to findmyschool.vic.gov.au, contact our school on 9395 1758 or enrolments@seabrook.vic.edu.au

A child’s permanent residence is the address at which they permanently reside at the time of seeking enrolment.We refer to the Department’s 100-point residential address check when seeking evidence for demonstrating permanent residence. 

Our Student Administration Officer will advise you on the required documentation depending on the school your child is transferring from. There is no need to complete the online Enrolment Application.

 

OUT-OF-ZONE STUDENTS

Seabrook Primary School does not have sufficient accommodation to accept all students who apply from outside their school zone.
