Second Hand Book Sale
To adhere to Covid-19 regulations, we are changing the process of our Second-hand book sale this year. Our wonderful Parent Association volunteers will continue taking an active part in the book sale by working behind the scenes to make this year’s event happen. We hope that our new process will minimise the need for parents to visit the school and provide a cashless alternative to purchasing second-hand books/texts.
Please note, this book sale is an annual fundraising event for the Parents Association with 20% of funds collected from the sale of the books going to the PA and 80% of funds being credited to the student’s school fee account and applied to 2021 Essential Item (school fees). No cash refunds will be made, except for where students are leaving the school ie Year 12 students, in which case payments will be made by EFT to a bank account in early 2021 after an emailed request is sent to generaloffice@wantirnacollege.vic.edu.au
with your student code and bank details.
Attached is the list of books that can be sold and the recommended prices.
