Enrolment Procedure
If you are interested in enrolling your child at St Brigid's School please make an appointment with the Parish Priest to receive a preference form. This will indicate if your child will qualify for preference of enrolment or open (non-preference) enrolment.

One or both of a child’s non-Catholic parents/guardians is preparing to become a Catholic.
