ENROLMENT FOR 2008
Students continuing at the Albert State School will not be required to complete
enrolment forms for the new school year. Please advise the school office of
any details that may have changed.
Prospective students are required to complete enrolment forms and schedule an
enrolment meeting. This should be done during school hours in the enrolment
week in 2007 or on Thursday 24 and Friday 25 January 2008. Proof of date of
birth will definitely be required for all students entering Prep Year and Year
1 and those who are coming from interstate.
ADVICE TO PARENTS OF PREP YEAR AND YEAR 1 CHILDREN BEFORE THE FIRST DAY OF
SCHOOL
Complete the Enrolment Form and bring along proof of age if not provided at
Prep.
Develop in your child the desire to start school and if necessary, remove any
fears that he or she may have.
Make sure of these points
1.That your child can repeat his/her name and surname.
2.That he/she can recognize his or her name on clothing, lunch box etc.
3.That he/she can put on shoes and tie laces.
4.That he/she can flush a toilet and fasten clothing. That he is familiar with
use of urinal.
5.That he/she knows of the necessity of washing hands after visiting the toilet
and/or before eating.
6.That he/she has a clean handkerchief each day and knows when and how to use
it.
7.That he/she has a hat with a brim to wear to school every day. It is our school’s
policy that hats with a full brim must be worn for outside play.
Please put the child’s name on ALL his/her goods so that we may also be able to recognise them.
To make it easier for your child, write the name in small letters - the type that will be used in Year 1. (See sample of writing on the next page)
REMEMBER - Constant use wears name tags and labels, and it is important to ensure that labels are renewed when necessary.
