We encourage applications to be submitted at least one year prior to entry. However, later applications will be considered at any time dependent on availability.
Please contact the Admissions Office for further information.
Boys' School Online Enrolment Application
Our major intake years are New Entrants (5 years old), Year 4 and Year 7.
Students may join the School at any year level if places are available.
We hold one Open Day at the beginning of the year and Campus Tours throughout the year.
All applications receive our consideration. Priority is given to students transferring from Saint Kentigern Preschool and current Saint Kentigern families.
Interviews are conducted by the Principal and take place in an encouraging and friendly atmosphere with the parents present throughout. It is normal that the Principal will direct some questions to the prospective student, (this will vary according to the age of the student) and record notes during the interview, which will last approximately 15 minutes. A tour of the campus follows the interview.
We provide education opportunities aligned to the interests and abilities of individual students. There is a well-established system of support for all learners whether they require extension or learning support.
All Saint Kentigern Boys' School students are offered priority acceptance to attend Saint Kentigern College, without the need to reapply.
We offer a number of scholarships to accomplished students whose circumstances would otherwise preclude their enrolment. These awards, both academic and all-round, are available to boys in Year 6 at a New Zealand school, offering them a place for entry in Year 7. The scholarships may contribute up to half of the annual tuition fees and are available for two years.
