Enrolment Criteria

All applications received from within our local intake area together with successful applications from the Specialist Rugby Program will be approved and processed.

Applications from parents/guardians outside our local intake area (see local intake area map) are considered with the number being determined by the school’s capacity to accommodate further enrolments based on the following criteria:

First priority is given to a child who has siblings also enrolled at Thornlie Senior High School, but not those siblings enrolled in special programs from outside the local intake area.
A second priority is given to a child who lives nearest to Thornlie Senior High School with the distance being measured in a straight line on a horizontal plane.
