Preparatory enrolment
Prep is the first year of school and provides the foundation for your child's education. It is now a compulsory year of schooling. It is a full-time program with children attending each day from Monday to Friday during the normal school hours of 8:30am to 2:30pm.
To be considered for enrolment at Kallangur State School please view the
Department's Prep ready reckoner calculator to determine when your child can commence their preparatory year.
Kallangur State School has an enrolment management plan. Enrolment priority is given to students whose principal place of residence is within the school's catchment area. Current proof of residency is required.
Students from outside the catchment, can be accepted if they meet one of the set criteria or space permits and the Principal approves the application.
Uniforms can be purchased at the Kallangur State School P and C shop. The school shop is open on a number of days. Please
contact us for details of times.

During this interview, children will complete a simple screener and the school collects this valuable information to help us allocate the appropriate teachers to cater for the needs of each student.
