Enrolment and Transition Guide

2026 – 2027 Enrolment and Transition

Enrolment and Transition

We welcome enrolments and enquiries from new Clare High School families at any time throughout the school year.

We strongly encourage prospective families to book a tour of Clare High School. Tours are led by Principal Natasha Dunn and run on selected Wednesday’s at 4:30pm during the term. If this time doesn’t suit, Student Services can arrange an alternative time with Wellbeing Leader Mandy Knight.

A tour is a great opportunity to see our facilities firsthand and to share any information that will help us support your child as they settle into their new school environment.

Book a tour using the button below, or contact Student Services to arrange an alternative time with Mandy Knight.
