Macarthur Primary School school zone (2027)
The 2027 zone for Macarthur Primary School covers addresses in 16 suburbs, mainly Macarthur (53% of the zone's addresses) and Byaduk (11%). It applies to Prep enrolments for the 2027 school year.
To check whether an address is in this zone: look it up in Delora's Address Check, which lists the government school zones an address falls in, then confirm it at findmyschool.vic.gov.au, the official source.
The Department publishes zones for families making enrolment decisions and says they shouldn't be relied on for property purchase decisions (Department of Education (Victoria), verified 22 Oct 2026). Zones can change every year.
Victoria only: government school zones are set by the Victorian Department of Education. Zone year 2027; boundary file published 23 March 2026.

Suburbs in the zone
Share of the zone's G-NAF addresses in each suburb, and how much of each suburb the zone takes in. Zones follow proximity, not suburb boundaries, so most suburbs are only partly inside. Suburb names link to Delora's suburb profiles where one is published.

Enrolment rules for this zone
- Living in the zone. A child whose permanent address is inside this zone has the right to a place at Macarthur Primary School for Prep, whatever the school's capacity (Department of Education (Victoria), verified 27 Sep 2026). The permanent address is where the child lives when you apply (Department of Education (Victoria), verified 27 Sep 2026), and the school can ask for evidence such as a lease or an exchanged contract of sale (Department of Education (Victoria), verified 27 Sep 2026).
- Living outside the zone. A place depends on space. When the school is full, out-of-zone applicants are ranked: siblings at the same permanent address first, then everyone else by how close they live to the school (Department of Education (Victoria), verified 27 Sep 2026).
- In two zones. An address inside two zones, or a property a zone boundary crosses, has the right to attend any of those local schools (Department of Education (Victoria), verified 27 Sep 2026). Near a boundary, check the exact address: streets marked part above are split by it.
Delora maps the Department's published boundary file; it isn't a zoning decision for any address. How zones are drawn, how often they change and which schools have no zone: how Victorian school zones work.
Frequently asked
What suburbs are in the Macarthur Primary School zone?
Addresses in 16 suburbs: Macarthur (53%), Byaduk (11%), Bessiebelle (10%), Orford (7%), Broadwater (7%), and 11 more. Most are only partly inside, so check your exact address at Find my School.
Did the Macarthur Primary School zone change for 2027?
No. The 2027 zone is the same as the 2026 zone.
How do I check if an address is in the Macarthur Primary School zone?
Search the address in Delora's Address Check, which lists the government school zones it falls in, then confirm it at Find my School (findmyschool.vic.gov.au), the official source. 18 streets in this zone are split by the boundary, so check the exact address.
Can I enrol at Macarthur Primary School from outside the zone?
Yes, if the school has space. Where a school lacks space for students from outside its zone, the Placement Policy's priority order applies: first students with a sibling at the same permanent address attending the school at the same time, then all other students in order of how close their permanent address is to the school. Compassionate-grounds applications are considered case by case.
How many streets are in the Macarthur Primary School zone?
134 streets have at least one address inside the zone; 18 of them are only partly inside.
