Enrolments

We welcome enrolments from the wider Dunedin area. Because we are an integrated college for the Catholic community of Dunedin and beyond, zoning does not apply.

Preference Enrolments

Preference of enrolment is given to students who have established a link with the Catholic Church through baptism, or membership of a parish. Preference is decided by your parish priest and a preference certificate from the parish is required for each student with the application for enrolment when applying to enter the school.

There are five categories of preference enrolment: 

5.1: The child has been baptised or is being prepared for baptism in the Catholic Church

5.2: The child’s parents/guardians have already allowed one or more of its siblings to be baptised in the Catholic faith

5.3: At least one parent/guardian is a Catholic, and although their child has not yet been baptised, the child’s participation in the life of the school could lead to the parents having the child baptised.

5.4: With the agreement of the child’s parent/guardian, a significant familial adult such as a grandparent, aunt or uncle who is actively involved in the child’s upbringing, undertakes to support the child’s formation in the faith and practices of the Catholic Church.

5.5: One or both of a child’s non-Catholic parents/guardians is preparing to become a Catholic.

Open Place (Discretionary) Enrolments

Students without Preference are welcome to apply for enrolment, however these are restricted to 5% of our maximum role.

We encourage you to apply early for these places because they fill quickly every year. The closing date for open places in the 2026 year is 20th August 2025, however, we recommend you contact the college if you are considering enrolment after this date because at times places become available.

For an open place enrolment, there is still a requirement to provide a preference of enrolment certificate completed by a Parish Priest.

An interview will be scheduled with the principal soon after the enrolment closing date.

We look forward to meeting you.
