Children must be enrolled at school by the age of 6. This is the compulsory starting age for children in South Australia. Children may begin their schooling at the age of 5 as follows:

Term 1 intake

If your child turns 5 before 1 May, they can start primary school at the beginning of the year.

Mid-year intake

If your child turns 5 between 1 May and 31 October, they can start school in either:

  • term 3 of the same year
  • or term 1 the following year

Students enrolled through a mid-year intake will complete 6 terms of reception.

Para Hills West Primary School offers a transition program to help new Reception students familiarise themselves with the teachers, our school community, and procedures.

Student Enrolments years 1-6
