In Zone
If you live within the school zone, there is an automatic right of enrolment with proof of address, once we have received your enrolment and other associated forms. School visits may be arranged for your child to visit the class and meet the teacher prior to starting school by telephoning the school office to arrange. View the school zone.
Out of Zone
Newmarket School is unable to accept Out of Zone applications at this time, due to the large expansion of housing in the central Newmarket area, which means we only have room for those living within the school zone. This is unlikely to change within the next few years. View the school zone.
