You must also provide school with proof of birthdate with a birth certificate, passport or ImmiCard and
Immunisation History Statement certificate. The certificate must have the clause - ‘This child has received all vaccines required by 5 years of age.’ View some information and an example of the correct certificate. You can get the certificate from a MediCare office or online from the MyGov website (your MyGov account needs to be linked to MediCare).
The office staff will take a copy of documents if you cannot provide copies.

An important part of enrolling is to ensure your child can participate in our K - Foundation (Prep) transition program that takes place in November. This program allows us to get to know your child and your child to get to know the school and how it works. Only students who are enrolled can take part in the program.
The videos below are for you and you child to watch to give you an idea of what school life is like at Albion Primary School. Please note these were made in 2020. While the videos may refer to starting school in 2021, they are helpful for whenever your child starts so you can get a better picture about what their days may look like at Albion. Please also note that the language we teach at Albion is now Auslan, not Italian. Many thanks to the Foundation teachers and students for their contribution in making and putting the vidoes together.
