This state-integrated school enrols by preference criteria, so zone rules don't apply in the same way. The map shows the school location — check the school's own enrolment scheme.
Reignier Catholic School is a state-integrated school. Places go first to applicants with a preference connection to the school's special character (for example, a faith connection), so the usual in-zone and ballot rules don't apply in the same way. Where a geographic priority exists, it works within those preference criteria. Check the school's own enrolment scheme before relying on a zone result.

How enrolment at Reignier Catholic School works
Ministry of Education enrolment-scheme status, and what it means for an application.
No enrolment scheme is listed for Reignier Catholic School, so it is open enrolment: a family can apply from any address, and there is no home zone and no out-of-zone ballot. Whether a place exists still turns on capacity at the year level you need — ask the school which intakes it is taking applications for and by when.
A school can adopt an enrolment scheme when it needs to manage growth, so confirm the current position with the school before relying on it.
