Enrolment Information

Positive Futures Fund-Voluntary Contribution

Fitzroy Primary School families have the opportunity to support our students through the Positive Futures Fund so that all children have equal access to the broad range of programs at our school.

Our Strength:

Fitzroy Primary School is a culturally, linguistically and socio-economically diverse community who are united by the school`s values of respect, empathy and courage. The school`s motto "inspired by learning" highlights the broad range of opportunities available to all students that identify and nurture talents and create pathways beyond school.

Our Goal:

To ensure that all students have equal access to the full range of experiences at Fitzroy Primary School, regardless of their socio-economic background.

An Opportunity:

The Positive Futures Fund will be used to provide students with access to excursions, camps and school fees for families who require financial support. To achieve this, the school has established a means by which families who wish to make a voluntary financial contribution can do so easily, quickly and confidentially through Compass.

If you would like to support this initiative you can do so through Compass or at the office.

Our Positive Futures Fund has enabled students at Fitzroy Primary School to participate and attend the Grade 5/6 camp, swimming program and purchase of grade 6 graduation hoodies. Thank you again to families in our school community who contributed and supported our students.
