We have finished the first stage of Dohertys Creek P-9 College in Truganina, and it opened for its first students on day 1, term 1, 2019.
We are using the additional funding received from the 2018-19 budget to build a performing arts and physical education facility, which will be ready for students in term 1, 2019.

Enrolments
Enrolments are now open for Prep – Year 6 at Dohertys Creek P-9 College.
Originally, the school planned to enrol only Prep to Year 2 in 2019. This has been extended up to Year 6, giving more families quicker access to this new school.
Years 7 to 9 students will be accepted when the planned future stages of the school are complete. We can’t be definite about the timing of this yet, as construction timelines depend on funding in future State Budgets. Parents will need to consider alternative secondary options until this time.
For questions about enrolments, please contact the principal, Ian Wren, on wren.ian.i@edumail.vic.gov.au.
State-wide school zone maps are available at findmyschool.vic.gov.au.
Policies on enrolment, placement, and admission are available on the Department of Education and Training website.
