This provides each child of the cardholder $125, which is to be spent on school camps, sporting activities and excursions. Application forms are available on the BPPS website and from the school office.

Applications must be submitted by 22th June 2020.

BPPS UNIFORM SHOP -Message from RHSports

With Term 2 going to look very different from the norm for us all, we wanted to let you know that the retail store in Ringwood is closed indefinitely and in addition to this all onsite school shops will also be closed.

What this means is the following:-

 We cannot offer a face to face walk-in and purchase retail service from Ringwood or onsite school shops.

 We cannot offer click and collect pickup service for online orders

 We will still be operating the website for online purchase as normal

 We will be picking and packing online orders as they come in and shipping direct to home for those who select this shipping method. 

Otherwise families can wait until we reopen to get new uniform.

Thank you for your understanding. 

STUDENT BANKING -Message from Commonwealth Bank

The health, safety and wellbeing of our communities and our people remains our highest priority. Due to the ongoing uncertainty surrounding coronavirus, the School Banking program will remain on hold. We will continue to monitor the situation and keep you informed with any updates including how we will be managing Dollarmite tokens for students.

In the meantime, here are some handy online resources for parents who wish to maintain momentum with their child’s financial education:

 Start Smart: these resources have been created to improve children’s money management skills, and is aligned to the Australian Curriculum and the National Consumer Financial Literacy Framework.

 The Beanstalk: offers videos and fun activities for children to learn about money.
