If residing out of catchment the older sibling must be enrolled at Geebung State School in 2025.
Please send documents via email to Enrolments@geebungss.eq.edu.au or present to the school office.
Step 2 Enrolment interview
At Geebung State School, we value the opportunity to meet with new parents and their children which is why we request an enrolment interview. It’s important that both parties get answers to the questions they may have in regard to enrolment in our school. It is the critical starting point for the home-school relationship that supports your child in their developing education to ensure their academic, social and emotional success.
Phone or email the school to make an appointment for an enrolment interview with a member of our Administration team.
Attend the interview at the school with your child or children. Also bring along each child’s birth certificate, and any other information that you may think if relevant e.g. previous report cards, visa documentation or medical reports.
Please note there will be a screening assessment in November. We will contact you once online booking becomes available.
