Prep is Hume Anglican Grammar's largest and main intake at the Donnybrook, Freier and Kalkallo Campuses.
The intake process for Prep 2028 will begin early 2027. Therefore, we encourage all families interested in joining the School to ensure an application is submitted by Monday 1 February 2027. Applications received after this date will join the waiting pool to be considered in the future pending availability.
There are 84 places available for Prep at each campus. As demand is already extremely high for the Freier Campus for Prep 2028, we strongly encourage families to preference the Kalkallo and Donnybrook Campuses in order to increase the likelihood of securing your child's primary and secondary education at Hume Anglican Grammar.
Please note, Year 7 is a minor intake and has limited places available to new students at both the Donnybrook and Freier Campuses. All year levels at all campuses are enrolled to capacity and waiting pools exist. Wait times are typically high and growing longer each year.
We will be hosting a Prep, 2028 Intake Information Evening on Wednesday 7 October 2026 in person at the Freier Campus. If you have already applied, or are curious about applying to our School, this Information Evening will cover the Intake Process for Prep, 2028 for all three campuses. The Intake Process has recently changed and will be outlined on the evening. Children are not required to attend this Information Evening. To register for this Information Evening please visit Register for Prep, 2028 Intake Information Evening.
