Expression of Interest - Placement in Year 7, 2024
Non-local students
An out of area applicant lives outside the drawing area for the school. School finder on the Department of Education website allows you to find your local school based on your address. Click here to check the local high school for your address.
Place numbers
Recently NSW Education introduced a 'cap' to limit the number of students each school is allowed to enrol. Kirrawee's cap has not impacted our enrolments allowing us to enrol the same quantity of students as previous years. Approximately a third of our students come from out of the area, so many places are available.
Process
The application process will involve the submission of both the KHS Non-Local Application form and the Expression of Interest - Placement in Year 7, 2024 form which is submitted for all NSW government schools. The school selection is based on the criteria identified below. A panel consisting of a parent and the deputy principals will review the applications.
When you submit the application, please keep the evidence and responses recent such as the last two or three years. You are welcome to also submit NAPLAN results (Year 3 & Year 5) if you wish.

There are two separate due dates for the forms.
- The KHS Non-Local Application is to be returned to Kirrawee High School by the 17 March, 2023.
