Tax deductible donations

With the end of the financial year approaching, we invite you to make a tax-deductible donation to the Port Melbourne Primary School Building Fund.

Every contribution, big or small, helps us create the best possible learning environment for our students. Your support will assist with projects such as:

Installing ceiling fans in the gym
Improving our classrooms
Funding whole-school improvements

You may also choose to donate to our Library Fund, which helps us purchase new books and resources for our students to enjoy. Donations to both the Building Fund and Library Fund are fully tax deductible.
