Parent Payment Arrangement 2024

2024 Parent Payment Arrangements 

We very much value being able to support our student's learning and growth by offering them opportunities through resources like Mathletics, Reading Eggs, books , stationery and programs such as Evolve, Pivot , Essential Assessments, to name a few. 

The ‘2024 Parent Payment Arrangement’ is located Compass. 

This will allow Northcote Primary to support the standard curriculum for our children. 

This also allows us to strive to offer the best possible education to our children with supporting programs and resources to foster optimal learning outcomes and experiences for all. The exact details of what this contribution covers and how it is spent is in the document attached. All students receive their individual student materials on the first day of school next year. 

We would like to acknowledge that although this contribution is higher than previous years, we have tried our best to avoid this as much as possible. There has been very careful consideration taken, in reaching the final amount for 2024. We have tried to reduce the number of payments across the year whilst also absorbing the increasing general costs to make sure that the school is not running at a loss and can still provide a wide range of programs and experiences to enhance the standard curriculum.

We would like to remind you that these payments are voluntary and assure you that they are in line with the Victorian DET guidelines and similar to surrounding schools.

Please continue to regularly check Compass - we use the Compass platform for all our official communication with families.

The cost for 2024 Parent Payment Arrangement is $350.00 

In the newsletter section 'THE BUSINESS END OF SCHOOL LIFE' compass information, you will find attached a copy of the Compass Pay Parent Guide on how to make payments via Compass. 

Please do not hesitate to contact the school's office should you have any concerns.
