Families considering MGSC for Years 8 to 12 (or Year 7 mid year application) see General enrolments Year 8 to 12 section for the application form.
Documentation and Proof of Address
MGSC, like all schools, collects information as part of the enrolment process. To verify this information, MGSC may ask for supporting documentation. This checklist details what documents parents and carers must provide. These documents are generally requested after you receive an enrolment offer, except for proof of address and visa documents.
To progress any application MGSC requires Proof of Address. This is particularly relevant when there are no or limited vacancies at a year level which MGSC is currently experiencing.
Below is an overview of the enrolment process for transitioning from Year 6 to Year 7. Applications for Year 7 Placement are accepted in mid May for the following year.
Your transition will be managed by your current primary school. They will provide the Year 6 to Year 7 Placement Information Pack (government schools) which includes application forms which should be returned to your primary school.
Moving from a non-government (includes Catholic) primary school or home schooling
Many of our local Catholic schools will manage your child's transition including providing the relevant Year 6 to Year 7 Placement Information Pack (non-government schools) and request applications be returned to that primary school. If this is not the case or your daughter attends an independent school or is home schooling then the pack and forms can be downloaded from Moving from primary to secondary school page and the application returned directly to MGSC. (Post, hand-delivery or mentone.girls.sc@education.vic.gov.au)
Placement Policy and school zones
Our school zone is available on findmyschool.vic.gov.au which hosts the most up-to-date information on school zones in Victoria.
Students residing within our school zone are guaranteed a place at our school, which is determined on the basis of your permanent residential address.
Our school manages enrolments using the Placement Policy to ensure that students have access to their designated neighbourhood school and may enrol at another school, if there are available places. This fact sheet gives an overview
This policy prioritises applications when enrolments exceed places available. MGSC has been able to place all applications in recent years.
Please note, there is not a separate 'out-of-zone application' form. Only the Department of Education documents need to be completed and returned.
Follow the Application for Year 7 Placement form instructions
Place MGSC as your first preference in section 4B on the application form.

MGSC has two semesters and a Headstart program in late Term 4. Succesful mid-year applications commence from Semester 2 or at Headstart.
