Finance Information - Subject Requisite Fees

Many thanks to all our parents who have paid their Subject Requisites. The school has just been able to purchase new microscopes for use in Science.  Your subject requisite payments go towards purchasing items required for your child to use in class.  Without your payments the school could not provide materials like this.

If you have outstanding fees can you please call the office to arrange payment.  This will also help reduce your debt before the 2020 fees are sent out next term.
