Principal's Update

Good afternoon families ... 

Last night we celebrated the Year Six Graduation with students, families and staff.  As we come to the end of another school year, we hope that each of our students will have their own lasting memories of their time at St Joseph's. 

We have much to be thankful for as we prepare for a well-earned break.  I wish all families a Merry Christmas and a safe and prosperous new year.

Good News: New CDFpay mobile app coming soon!

St Joseph’s Primary School Quarry Hill will be using the new CDFpay mobile app for online tuckshop ordering, events and fundraising at our school from the start of Term 1 2025. 

What do you need to do?

• Keep using your current CDFpay login to access CDFpay until the end of Term 4 2024.
• Use up as much of your CDFpay account balance as possible before the end of Term 4 2024.  We will let you know the process for account balance transfers at the end of the year.   
• Keep an eye out for further communications advising you when the new CDFpay mobile app is available to download for our school, and how to set up your new account. 

Can I continue using the current CDFpay platform in Term 1 2025?

No, the current CDFpay platform will no longer be available, and you will be directed to register for a new CDFpay account. 

We look forward to providing you with a further update soon.

School Fees & Levies

Statements for school fees & levies are emailed to families.  Please check your statement and contact the office if you have any questions.

It is expected that all school fees and levies are finalised each year by the start of December.

The school provides a variety of options for payment of school fees and levies - in full at the start of the school year / part payment at the start of each school term / by direct debit – weekly, fortnightly, or monthly / by direct payment into the school bank account or by regular payments at the school office by cash or EFTPOS.   You can even pay over the phone if you wish.

It is important that payment of school fees and levies are honoured and prompt payment is much appreciated.  However, if you are experiencing difficulty meeting your obligation for payment, please contact the school to arrange a time to discuss this with the Principal, Mr Peter Teggelove.
