Government zoning

Which catchments cover Marysville

2 government catchments cover Marysville — 1 secondary and 1 primary — so which one applies depends on the address, not the suburb. The secondary catchment is Healesville High School.

CatchmentThe area around a government school where living there guarantees your child a place. Boundaries follow streets, not suburb lines, so an address near the edge of a suburb may be zoned elsewhere.

They are redrawn each year.
