Catchment
A wider Catchment area than Primary Schools
We have students coming from the areas surrounding the Centre i.e. Girrawheen, Koondoola, Balga, Mirrabooka, Marangaroo, as well as Darch, Landsdale and Alexander Heights.
If your child meets the criteria for eligibility, you can enrol at the Centre of your choice. If your child attends their nearest education support centre, they are eligible to go on the special school buses run by Department of Transport. These buses have a bus aide to ensure the safety of the students and the buses go from door to door. If outside the bus zone, they will not be eligible for bus services and will need to be driven to school by parents/carers. https://schoolbuses.wa.gov.au/Home.aspx
