Enrolment information 2025

Welcome to Upper Swan Primary School

 

Upper Swan Primary School caters for students from Kindergarten to Year 6.
Please see below for key information about enrolments and starting school.

Starting School

In Western Australia, children can start in Kindergarten (non-compulsory) before moving into Pre-Primary, the first year of compulsory schooling.

At Upper Swan PS, Kindergarten students must re-apply for Pre-Primary — enrolments do not automatically roll over.

You’ll need to apply to enrol for 2026 if your child is:

  • Starting Kindergarten – turns 4 by 30 June 2022
  • Starting Pre-Primary – turns 5 by 30 June 2021

More details and a School Age Calculator are available on the
Department of Education website.

Local Intake Area
Our school is located on Great Northern Highway, Upper Swan, and has a local intake area. You can check whether your address falls within the intake area here: Local Intake Area Map.

Families living outside the catchment are still welcome to apply. Acceptance is at the Principal’s discretion, based on available class numbers. For more information, see Enrolment in Public Schools Procedures.
