We have EFTPOS available at the school office (sorry, no credit cards). Payments can also be made by cheque or cash. If you would prefer to pay by instalment or via internet banking, our bank account number is: 01-0141-0004195-00 – if you are using this method to pay please ensure you include your child’s name with the payment so that we know who it has been received from.
We ask that you try to complete these payments in the first week of school and certainly by March. This is a tremendous help to our office staff who can end up spending a lot of time sending out invoices throughout the year. We look forward to working together to make 2012 the best year yet for our school.
Who are we? What do we believe?
We are a school that offers every child the opportunity to succeed.
* We believe that every child has the talents to succeed
* We want every child to experience a wide range of learning opportunities in a
caring and supportive environment
* We believe every child should be safe and happy at school
As a school community we are working hard to achieve these goals and believe that they can happen with everyone working together.
The school donation is one way every family can assist to make our vision a reality.
The school donation in 2012 allows for:
- Class sizes of less than 30 across the school
- Dedicated music teacher
- Extension and support programmes across the school
- Property improvements – in 2012 we are making a significant investment in developing our playground equipment, gardens and art. We want our school to be colourful and well presented with lots of children’s work and effort evident.
The school donation makes these things happen.
