Thank you for considering Golden Grove Lutheran Primary for your child’s learning journey. Choosing a school for your children is one of the biggest decisions you will make, and is both challenging and exciting! There are many things to consider such as ‘Will the school cater to my child’s needs and interests?’ ‘Will the curriculum support my child’s development?’ and ‘Does the school values reflect my own values and expectations?’
At Golden Grove, we believe that learning should be enjoyable, engaging and authentic. We are focused on developing strengths, passions and skills in our students and a warm sense of community for our school families where each student and family is known and valued individually.
Applications can be submitted at any time for any year level from Foundation (Reception) to Year 6. There are a few steps to enrol your child at Golden Grove and we warmly invite you to start the process by booking a personalised school tour. We look forward to welcoming you to Golden Grove Lutheran Primary School soon!
For all enrolment enquiries, please contact Kylie Chinca, our Enrolment Officer via email or on (08) 8282 6000

Once you have submitted an Enrolment Application Form your application will be processed and considered.
Applications may be submitted up to 5 years before commencement. If the requested year level is full, your application may be placed on a waiting list.

Step 3: Acceptance
Once the school has accepted the enrolment you will receive the Confirmation of Enrolment form requesting you to secure your child’s position by placing a $250 deposit. This deposit will be credited to your school fee account once your child commences.
Once the deposit is paid and our school has accepted the enrolment, you will be sent a formal letter advising you of this placement.
