Foundation at Livingstone
Enrolments
Starting school is an exciting time for children, parents and
carers. We want to help make the enrolment process as easy
as possible for you.
In Victoria, your child has the right to attend their designated
neighbourhood school (your ‘local school’) under the Education
and Training Reform Act 2006.
You can also apply for a place at a school that is not your local
school. The school will consider your application in line with the
Placement Policy. For more information on the Placement
Policy, visit the Enrolling in school page.
Enrolment enquiries can be made via our school office via our Contact Page or by calling (03) 9803 7673.
Students currently studying at another school and families who are planning to move into the area, please contact us at any time to discuss possible enrolment. Students who are moving from another school are requested to provide Livingstone PS with any past reports to assist our teaching and planning for your child.
Placement and zoning
Our school zone is available on findmyschool.vic.gov.au which hosts the most up-to-date information on school zones in Victoria.
Students residing within our school zone are guaranteed a place at our school, which is determined on the basis of the residential address address you provide to us.
Can my child apply to a government primary school that is not our local school?
Yes, you can apply to schools other than your local school. The school will consider your application in line with the Placement Policy and available space. You can find information on how applications are prioritised on the Enrolling in school page.
STEAM
Our 1:1 iPad program is for students across all year levels to support our STEAM learning focus. This begins during Semester 2 of Foundation.
All students from Foundation to Year 6 participate in dedicated science sessions, including working in our school science lab. The curriculum integration of science and other STEAM areas are supported and enhanced by the use of state of the art technology and resources.
