How does the waitlist process work if a year level is full?
The Senior and Junior School interview and offer process takes place approximately 24 months from the year of commencement. The school will contact waitlisted families to request supporting documentation in preparation for interviews. Following a successful interview a formal offer may be made. If a year group is full, the family will be advised the student’s position remains on the waitlist and the School will make contact when/if we can progress the enrolment.
Pre-Kinder interview and offer processes take place approximately 12 months from year of commencement. The school will contact waitlisted families to request supporting documentation in preparation for interviews. Following a successful interview a formal offer may be made.
For any mid-year enrolment, on application, the position is waitlisted; the school will assess availability of a place at the time of application.
What are the rules relating to the Enrolment/Waitlist Fee?
To apply for a place at Kinross Wolaroi School for your child, you must submit a completed and signed application form, along with supporting documents, the non-refundable $250 Application Fee and the $1100 Enrolment/Waitlist Fee.
Payment of the Enrolment/Waitlist Fee provides confirmation of your intention to progress an enrolment at Kinross Wolaroi School. The fee does not guarantee you a place at the School.
The Enrolment/Waitlist Fee is only refunded when the School, for any reason, is unable to offer the student an enrolment.
Once an offer of place has been made the Enrolment/Waitlist fee will be forfeited if you decide not to accept the place.
When an offer of place is made, a further $400 non-refundable Confirmation Fee becomes payable to finalise the enrolment.
What are the school fees and when are they payable?
The School's fees and charges are determined by the School Council and revised regularly. The School's schedule of fees and the due dates for payment are published annually at the end of Term 4 for the following year. Visit the FEES page for full details.
Full details regarding Fees and Charges are included in the Enrolment Terms and Conditions in the Enrolment Form.

What if we need to remove the student from the school?
As is normal practice with non-government schools, at least one term’s notice in writing is required before the student is removed from the School. If such notice is not given, a fee equivalent to one term’s notice is payable in lieu of the required notice. As an example, if it is your intention to withdraw your child from the School at the end of Term 4, written notice must be received (and receipt acknowledged) by the Principal (or his delegate) no later than the last day of academic classes in Term 3 of that year.
