2026 Foundation Enrolments: Applications Now Open!

Thank you for your interest in enrolling at our school.  To ensure that every family has the appropriate opportunity to enrol their child, all Ballarat Catholic Primary Schools collaborate throughout the process of Foundation (Prep) Enrolment. Information collected through the enrolment process is collated on a common database, which is shared by the Catholic Primary Schools in Ballarat. Completing this application does not guarantee that an enrolment offer will be made. The application process for 2026 Foundation (Prep) Enrolments:

  1. Register for a school tour (click link above)
  2. (This is how you complete the Application) CLICK HERE to register your interest in enrolling your child at a Catholic school in the city of Ballarat by completing an online “City of Ballarat Expression of Interest for Enrolment” form.  

When completing the Expression of Interest form you will be required to:

  1. Indicate your first, second and third preference schools. This is where you will list Siena CPS as your first preference. Please ensure you list three different schools in your preferences so that if you are unsuccessful receiving an offer at your first preference, you will then have an opportunity of receiving an offer at your second or third preference.
  2. Upload your child’s birth certificate and, if applicable, baptism certificate.
  3. Indicate medical and educational considerations and any supports your child currently engages with.
