Enrolments for the 2025 academic year are currently open and close on Friday 23rd August 2024.
If you have a child turning 5 next year or know someone else who is looking to apply for their child to start Emmanuel Christian School in 2025 can we please ask that you ensure this process is completed before the cut-off date. Please note that while siblings of current students do have a preference for enrolment these applications still need to be completed by the closing date. We intend to be able to offer places for 2025 by the middle of September.
Enrolment information can be found at Enrolment Information
Perspective new parents are encouraged to contact the office and make a time to come and visit the school.
If you know you are moving and your child(ren) will not be returning to Emmanuel next year, can we please ask that you let us know so we can make these places available to other families.

Business Enterprise Lunchtime Markets
|
As part of our Year 9 & 10 Economics programme, students are starting up their own business enterprise. These businesses will be set up and run over three Tuesdays, the 20th of August, the 3rd and 17th of September.
The different groups will be selling food sush as pizza, hot chips, toasties, icecream and more.
Attached below, you will find an item and price list of goods so that you can have a discussion with your child about what they may like to purchase and have an idea about what is an appropriate amount of money.
Some groups will be doing a pre-order form so they know how many items they need to purchase. These orders will then be delivered to the classes at lunchtime. The attached notice below has information on how to place a pre-order. These notices have also been sent home with your child/ren.

There is a lot of lost property at the moment including polar fleeces, puffer jackets and various other items of clothing. If you are missing anything please check the lost property boxes, located in the Office hallway outside K5 and the Middle School foyer.
At the end of each term any items left in the Lost Property are discarded or donated. Please ensure all your child’s uniform items are clearly named so if found, they can be returned to your child.
