Families are required to provide two forms of documentation to prove their residential address, for example: rate’s notice, utility notice, driver’s licence.
New enrolments
All new enrolments to Gisborne Secondary College (excluding the year 6 into year 7 transition process) are overseen by the Assistant Principals.
School requirements and information including uniform, books, lockers, code of conduct, parent and student supports and subjects of study are discussed upon enrolment. An enrolment pack (including our school handbook and enrolment forms) is available from the front office. To make an enrolment enquiry please fill out the Enrolment Enquiry Form.
Transition from Year 6 to 7
At Gisborne Secondary College our transition program spans Years 6 and 7. We follow the policy set by the Department of Education in handling the application process from primary to secondary school and support families and schools along the way to ensure the process is smooth and the experience positive for all.
More information for families about transitioning from Year 6 to 7, including the relevant Information Pack, depending on whether the student is moving from a government or non-government school, can be found at the Department of Education website.
