Catchment area

A local state school is a primary school which is closest to a student’s principal place of residence.  Enrolment at Labrador State School is reliant on residency inside a defined boundary area called the local catchment area. Please use the EdMap link to clarify whether your residential address is within our catchment area or a neighbouring school’s catchment.
