St Patrick’s College is a non systemic, congregational Catholic College and as such is not restricted to geographic boundaries when accepting enrolment applications.

Enrolment of a student is conditional upon parents/carers undertaking the financial requirements of the College.
As a general rule the enrolment process for current year enrolments at the College is as follows:

During the enrolment period for Year 7 the following process is used:
These students wishing to enrol at the College for commencement at the beginning of the following year follow the same process as Year 7 Enrolments. These students and their parents are also invited to attend the Information/Orientation Day in November or December. For Enrolments after the commencement of the school year, contact the College for an enrolment pack and to discuss availabilty of places.
The College conducts this workshop towards the end of each year. It is an excellent opportunity for parents new to the College community to gain insight into College life. Year 7 parents find the workshop invaluable in learning how to assist their daughter(s) through the transition from Primary to Secondary School.
