Stay Tuned for Updates
To receive updates about our Prep Transition Program, please submit your enrolment forms as soon as possible, so your family can be added to our mailing list.
Please note that completed enrolment forms are required before your child can attend the program.

Ready to Enrol?
You can start the enrolment process now by completing the Enrolment Form for Prep – Year 3 (4.9MB). Once completed, return the form:
As part of the enrolment process at Cranbrook, you will need to provide the original of your child's birth certificate.
Once all required paperwork has been submitted, the Principal will review your application and our office staff will send a formal acceptance email before attending our Prep Transition Program.
Where a child has identified support needs, our office staff will arrange a meeting with a member of our Leadership Team before attending the first session of our Prep Transition Program. This meeting provides an opportunity to discuss your child's needs, ensure a smooth transition into our school and that appropriate planning and supports are in place.
Unsure About Prep Eligibility?
If you are unsure about your child's Prep eligibility, you can use the Department's online calculator to determine when your child can commence their preparatory year. Additional information about Prep is available on the Queensland Government Prep Information Page.

If you have any questions or need assistance, please contact our school office or the Enrolments Team. We're here to help!
We look forward to welcoming you and your child to the Cranbrook community!
