Expression of Interest for Year 6 students currently attending a NSW Government School

Expression of interest process for this year is now closed. 

This form lets you indicate which school you would like your child to attend in Year 7. After your expression of interest is processed, your child will be offered a place at a government high school.

This form must be completed in English. You will need your child’s residential address, their basic details and the contact details for one parent/carer.

If you require an interpreter to assist you please call 131 450 and ask for an interpreter in your language. This service will be free of charge to you.
