Expressions of Interest for Year 7 2027 Programs of Excellence
In 2022, we updated the application processes for Programs of Excellence including Ken-X, German Immersion (GIEP) and Music Extension (MEX) to occur when students are in Year 5, to enable us to work with them in Year 6 to successfully transition to high school.
Current Year 5 families applying for Year 7 in 2027 in one of the school's Programs of Excellence are required to complete an online Expression of Interest and entrance examination (Ken-X & GIEP) or audition (MEX), with applications closing Friday 10 October 2025. Entrance Examinations will take place on Saturday 1 November 2025.
