Erasmus School

Enrolment

Invitation to come and see

We invite all prospective parents to attend one of our tours held on most Tuesdays during term from 12.15 pm. The tour groups tend to be small, providing an ideal opportunity to experience Erasmus Primary School. Visitors have time to see the children at work and play and view the facilities. There is plenty of opportunity to ask questions. Call the school or email the Registrar to let us know when you would like to take a tour.

Erasmus Primary School is a non-select-entry, co-educational school and welcomes families from across Melbourne of all faiths as well as those with no particular faith tradition who support the guiding principles of the school.

Enrolment through the year

Start of Prep is the major intake time; however, children may join in any year level at any time of the year, providing there is a place and subject to the Principal’s approval. In the year the student commences Prep, he or she must be five years of age by 30 April, or later only at the Principal’s discretion. We generally invite the child to spend a full day at the school to ascertain compatibility for all. A copy of the child’s most recent school report is required.

Bursary Trust

The Erasmus Primary School Bursary Trust aims to make education at Erasmus Primary School accessible to families who may be unable to pay full fees.

Privacy

Erasmus Primary School complies with Victorian State and Australian Federal legislation and law. All information provided to Erasmus Primary School remains confidential.
