School Council Approved Contributions Now on Compass
2026 School Council Approved Contributions are now available to pay via the Payments Centre on Compass. You can see them in the Payments Centre when you login. You can choose to pay Contributions in full or via a payment plan. Several payment plans are available including quarterly, monthly over 10 months or fortnightly over 10 months. If you opt for a payment plan after an instalment date, Compass will deduct payment from your credit card on the following day for past instalment dates with remaining payments in line with the advertised dates.
2026 Contributions are open for payment via the Payments Centre for the full school year, so you do have the option of making part payments at any time during the year when it is convenient to you.
Curriculum Contributions for Year 9 – 12 Subjects/Electives which incur additional costs will be available to pay to pay via Compass Events. These will be published on Compass in December. We are pleased to let you know there are no increases to subject/elective contributions for 2026.
All contributions are very much appreciated. Your ongoing support ensures that we can strive to achieve high-quality educational outcomes, excellent facilities and a stimulating learning environment which engages and nurtures all learners to achieve their goals for the future.
In 2025, we furnished the new Learning and Wellbeing Centre, upgraded student toilet blocks with new paint and vape detectors and landscaped our grounds. We installed new signage as well water bubblers displaying student artwork. We have also invested in modern furniture, appliances and equipment for our STEM Lab. Your contributions allow us to employ a Registered School Nurse and provide extra administrative support, including in our Wellbeing team. All initiatives are focused on providing better learning and wellbeing outcomes for our students. We thank you for your continued support.
If you have any queries regarding School Council Approved Contributions for 2026, please contact the College Office on 9561 5811 or email business.manager@whsc.vic.edu.au
