It all starts here.
We warmly welcome all new families to Claremont College, and we look forward to meeting yours. Our annual intake years are Preparatory, Kindergarten, Year 3 and Year 5, with enrolment in other year groups offered subject to availability. Because interviews are usually held 12–18 months before a child starts, we encourage families to apply well ahead of time.
From your first enquiry to your child’s first day, our Registrar will guide you through every step: from answering questions, to detailing school policies to ensuring the enrolment process is as smooth as possible. To experience our college and community for yourself, book a school tour today.
