Register for school

Welcome to Kindergarten!

Our online registration system is available to enrol your child in Kindergarten for the 2020-2021 school year. Your child must be turning 4 years of age by December 31, and can enrol at a Durham Catholic school across the region if:

the child is baptized Catholic; or
a parent/guardian is Catholic;
or you provide proof of RCIC/RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation for Children/Adults) registration.

To enrol your child through our online registration process, visit dcdsb.ca/registration.

Once you have completed the online registration, a school staff member will be in contact with you regarding next steps. Due to current school closures, the mandatory documentation will be required when schools re-open and final admission will be confirmed at that time.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact (905) 576-6150 Ext. 22211.

We look forward to starting this learning journey with you and your child! For questions about registration, email our Admissions department.
