The Gap State School Open Day is held in May each year and in 2024, will be held on Thursday, 23 May.
Commencing at 9am with an address by the Principal, Mrs Joanne Nicholls, the Open Day begins as a seated event in the school hall, the 'MPB', where parents and caregivers will also be introduced to members of school staff, before school tours with senior students will commence. The Open Day concludes at 10:30am.
Registration to attend the Open Day is not required, however we encourage parents/caregivers who are interested in enrolment for their child at the school, to submit an expression of interest for enrolment form, which is located under the Enrolments/Enrolling at our school tab menu on this website.
As the Open Day is a seated event and tour of the school, the format is most suitable for parents and caregivers. Children are very welcome to attend with their parent/caregiver, however parents/caregivers are encouraged to bring a quiet activity with them.
Parking - Please note that parking is not available in the school grounds. Parking is available in surrounding streets. We remind visitors to the school to please be respectful of residents in surrounding streets and do not park across, nor too close to driveways. Two-minute zones located close to school entrance gates are available for parking between 9am - 2pm only on school days, (or) according to BCC parking signage.
Enrolment interviews for 2025 Prep children, who are automatically eligible for enrolment at The Gap State School, will begin in the week following Open Day. Enrolment information will be emailed to parents/caregivers who have submitted an expression of interest form online for their child.
