PREPARING FOR PREP IN 2009

If your child is due to start Prep at a State School in 2009, there are a number of things to be aware of.  In particular, The Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages is encouraging parents to apply for birth certificates for their school-aged children as soon as possible to avoid the back-to-school rush.   If your child was born on or before 30 June 2004, you will need proof of age (such as their birth certificate) to enrol them in school next year. Don’t leave it to the last minute; apply for a birth certificate now.
