2018 SCHOOL LEVIES ARE NOW DUE

Students and families have received notification of successful enrolment in subjects for 2018. Course Confirmation/Payments are accessible on Compass.

Families have the ability to make payment in several ways;

3. BPay (details shown on family statement or call the general office for B-Pay Biller Code & Reference Code)

4. Direct debit from your nominated account or credit card (arrange at the general office), option of instalments to suit you

5. Credit Card over the phone

6. In person at the general office with cash, cheque and/or EFTPOS

7. Centrepay instalments (arrange at the general office)

Payment Plans are also an option

All funds collected as Essential Student Learning Items provide the only budget to our teachers (i.e. classroom materials for our students). We rely on the college community to partner with us in supporting the learning of our children so that the high standards expected of Mount Eliza Secondary College can be maintained. Students chose subjects and families approve the choice of electives, therefore subjects have been planned and costed according to the commitments made by families. If we want to continue to give our children excellent education with relevant resources, parent contributions are imperative. Non Payment of levies may result in the removal from high cost electives into no or low cost electives.

As always, we welcome the opportunity to support all families, if you are experiencing difficulty in making payment, please contact Deb Farag or Brenda Barker at the college.
