School Fees

School Fee Statements have been sent home to families, including the School Fees Letter, outlining the 2026 School Fees & Levies, as well as other relevant information. If you have not yet received your statement, which was sent home with the eldest child, please contact Mary at the school office.

The preferred option for payment of school fees is via the CDFpay App by setting up payments either via credit card (fees apply) or direct debit (no fees). Please see below for information and instructions on how to set up the CDFpay App.

Alternatively, payments can be made using the following options:

• Electronic Bank Transfer/Direct Debit (families will need to keep track of their own payments): School Bank details are shown on the bottom of your school fee statement.  Please quote your FAMILY NAME  as reference

   

• Cash or Credit Card /EftPOS (Visa or Mastercard only) via the school office – a receipt will be issued for these payments only.

Thank you to the families who have already set up their school fee payments. If you have any questions regarding school fees or require further assistance, please contact Mary at the school office.

nForma

As Operoo has now ceased operations, nForma is the school’s platform for managing the following functions:

• Digital permission forms for excursions, sports attendance etc

Please ensure that you download the nForma for Parents App, so that you can use the above functions. 

Below is a link to the guide to assist you in setting up the nForma for Parents App. Please add your child/ren’s Medical Information, as per the guide.

Parking

For the safety of our students and families, can you all please take extra care when driving around school and surrounding streets. There have been a lot of "near misses" on our pedestrian crossing, narrowingly missing Robyn our Lollipop lady and students.

Please also pay attention to the "No Standing", "No Parking" and permit zones.  Council and the Police are patrolling and have fined several families for not adhering to the signs and restrictions. Immediately out the front of school is strictly "Pick Up/Drop Off" Zone. Cars cannot be left unattended  by the driver.

Also please respect our neighbors by not parking over their driveways.

Your support and cooperation in managing traffic flow around our school is much appreciated.
