I didn't realise in VIC that if after Apr 30th you had any choice of year e.g - I thought you had to start school in the year you turn 6 which would be Jan next year wouldn't it? Or is it you just have to start before turn seven? Or is there more than one intake a year?
In Victoria a child has to start primary school the year they are turning 6. if for whatever reason your child is not starting by the year they turn 6, a letter from Dept. of Education is required...

Eta:- the above was the info i was given by a D.O.E rep last week it's not an issue for me as DD1 will turn 6 a week before the 2015 school year starts
