Enrolments

Choosing a school for your child is an important decision, and also a very exciting one.

At CBC Fremantle we embark on a shared journey with the families of the College in the development of their sons from today's boys into the gentlemen of tomorrow. We are here to support you in making the best choice for your son.

Prospective families are encouraged to register their interest for their son at least three years prior to his commencement at high school, that is by midway through Year 4. Although the key entry year at CBC Fremantle is Year 7, places in other Years do arise occasionally and it is recommended that you contact the College to discuss your son's requirements if you are seeking admission at any other time.

Campus tours

CBC Fremantle welcomes prospective families to experience our community by registering for our regular Morning Tea Tours. All information on these regular introductions can be viewed on our College website under Visit Us. Personalised tours can also be arranged by contacting the College's Admissions Office via email: enrol@cbcfremantle.wa.edu.au.

In 2024, we will be offering a number of options to visit us and learn more about opportunities for your son:
