Enrolment Procedure

After your child’s place at St. Michael’s International School has been confirmed, the School will send you a welcome email to prepare for your child’s first day at School. This will contain information such as school uniform guidelines, lunch information and how to access the online parents page.
If accepted for mid-year entry, the child may enrol after a minimum of two full school days after the school receives the ‘Acceptance of Place Form’ from the parent, to allow the School to make necessary preparation. (e.g. When the ‘Acceptance of Place Form’ is submitted to School Office on Wednesday, the child may start school on Monday.)
Essential documents required (e.g. Medical Form and Emergency Contact Form) must be completed and submitted by the first day of school.
School uniform must be purchased before the enrolment date.
All school fees must be paid prior to entry to the School. An invoice will be sent to the email addresses indicated on the online application form after the enrolment is confirmed by both the School and the parents.
