Prep

• Check Prep enrolments on the Education website to ensure your child is the correct age for commencing prep. You will also find links to information regarding early and delayed entry to prep on this website.

• Call into Administration for an Enrolment Pack, or download one online. Book an informal tour of our facilities and our school. This is the best way to experience Chatswood Hills State School. You will join one of our staff for a guided walk to see our school in action and learn about our facilities. The informal nature of our tours allows you to ask questions at the time.

• Connect with us on our Chatswood Hills State School Facebook page or @chattyhillsss Instagram page to stay up to date on information on our upcoming Prep Information Sessions and transition to prep activities.
  

• When you return your enrolment Information to Administration, we will keep in touch with you via your nominated email address. You will be contacted to arrange an Enrolment interview time and receive information regarding Prep at our school.
