Paying Voluntary Parent Contributions.

Thanks to those families that pay their Voluntary Parent Contributions.

For 2024 our School Council determined our Voluntary Parent Contribution to be $220 per child, capped at $440 per family. This is a raise of $20 over previous years; fees/levies were not increased during Covid.

These contributions are used by the school to support our programs. Some of the items that they pay for are computer equipment, art supplies, maintenance for our minibus, sporting equipment, school and grounds maintenance that is not covered by working bees, and musical instruments among many other things.

We are happy for you to pay your Voluntary Parent Contribution on a basis that fits your family’s budget – whether that be as a lump sum, term based or monthly. Please let us know if we can help in any way/ Thanks for your support with this.
