Family Financial Accounts

At Kurunjang Secondary College we strive to provide all students with a high quality educational experience, with only necessary costs passed onto parents. However we also understand that for some, financial times are tough and family budgets are tight. The Kurunjang Secondary College Council has approved a Learning from Home discount to some elective charges, this discount (if applicable) will appear on your family account as a credit or reduction in elective charge. 

 

We offer a number of options to families to make payments of school charges, including payment plans. Regular payments can be made to the College via a BPay or Centrepay schedule. Once these are set up, each payment then transfers to us and is immediately receipted to your account, without you having to do anything else. All parents are free to set this up by themselves, but if you would like some assistance, please do not hesitate to contact the Office. 

 

Family Statements will be mailed home at the beginning of Term 3.
