Payments at office: Just a reminder that we have EFT available in the office for payments if you don`t have cash
handy and we can also take payments over the phone this way as well. Permission notes would still need to be sent
in but this may help with ease of payments.
Student banking: Please remind your child to bring in their
Commonwealth student banking deposit books every Thursday
morning. Well done to those students who regularly bank. Every
deposit earns a Dollarmite that can be saved up and used to claim
rewards for the student and also is a fundraising avenue for our school.
