Voluntary Contributions

What are Voluntary Contributions?

The school receives funding each year based on actual student numbers from the Department of Education. This goes to providing most of the material and resources necessary for students to access educational programs.

Your Voluntary Contributions provide additional resources and materials that maximise the quality of our teaching and learning programs and help us to provide the best possible education for your children.

The contributions enable us to purchase additional reading and library materials, curriculum resources, ICT and a variety of services and facilities which support our educational programs.

How much are the Voluntary Contributions?

Contribution amounts are set and ratified by the School Board each year. The Board has decided that the cost of the Voluntary Contribution is $60 per student for the 2024 school year.

How can I pay?

The following options are available:

1) Contact the school office between 8am and 4pm in person or by calling 6207 6100. Payments can be made via cash or EFTPOS.

2) Make a Direct Deposit into the school bank account using the following details:

Please enter your child’s name as the reference and reason for payment.

Why should I pay if they are ‘voluntary’?

Although its name seems to indicate they are inconsequential fees, your contributions allow our teaching staff to enrich their programs with what we believe are vital educational resources for the classroom. Every cent is allocated to the invoiced school year, and is used in that year, so that it benefits your child(ren) directly.

We are very happy to negotiate payment schedules over time with families. Should you wish to arrange a payment schedule please contact our Manager Corporate Services, Lorraine Popham on 6207 6100.
