Junior School

Year 6 to 7 Transition

While Year 6 students have been undertaking Remote Learning with their Primary School, here at Mooroolbark College we have been finalising our intake for Year 7, 2021. In accordance with the latest DET transition guidelines, placement offers have been forwarded to Primary Schools to advise current Year 6 students.  An information pack from Mooroolbark College will be mailed directly to all accepted students at the end of August. Make sure to keep an eye out for the post at this time.  For many parents and carers, the transition of their child from Year 6 to Year 7 can be overwhelming. We ask that you carefully read the information pack, ensuring to complete and return all required permissions and paperwork by the due date. We will assist you by providing a stamped, school addressed, envelope. 

Should you have any questions about this process, do not hesitate to email transition@mooroolbarkcollege.vic.edu.au. 
Further information and guidance to support parents/carers can be found on the Department of Education and Training website: https://www.education.vic.gov.au/parents/going-to-school/Pages/tips-starting-school.aspx
