Parent Payments
The School Levies payment enables us to continue to offer programs across the school to enhance the learning of all students. It also covers all the students' stationery, Art, Performing Arts and LOTE supplies for the year, as well as enabling us to be able to provide and upkeep our iPads and laptops across the school.
Parent payments are posted on Compass and can be paid through the Compass portal or, alternatively, through the school bank account, BPAY or by coming into the office and paying via cash or EFT. If you are having financial difficulties in making this payment, please speak to Sue Hartley or Tina Clark in the office.
Attendance
Just a reminder...if your child is absent from school for any reason, please update Compass or call the school attendance line to advise. If we have not heard from you by 9.30am, we will attempt to contact you by phone. If no answer, then this will be followed up with an email.
It is the Department's policy that all absences are explained. If your child is marked absent for 3 days or more unexplained, this information is forwarded to the Department of Education Regional Office for follow-up.
School Saving Bonus
As shared with you previously, parents and carers of every child enrolled in a Victorian government school in 2025 will receive the one-off School Saving Bonus $400 support.
In the coming months, the Department of Education will send you 2 email communications for each of your children enrolled in Victorian government schools.
The 2 emails from the Department of Education will:
1. Confirm your email address between mid-October and late-November.
2. Provide you with your unique $400 School Saving Bonus code by the end of November.
If you do not receive a confirmation email from the Department by late November, please firstly check your spam or junk mail folders, otherwise contact the school office.
You can read more about the School Saving Bonus on the Department of Education website School Saving Bonus | vic.gov.au (www.vic.gov.au), with key information now available in 14 different languages.
