XUNO and Family Payments 2018
Thank you to all families who have paid their parent payments for the 2018 academic year.
This year we are continuing to deliver a more efficient payment and authorisation method for all Essential Learning Items, Events, Sports, Camps and Excursions by using the Events module on XUNO. This method replaces our paper forms and invoices as previously sent to you. Please log on to the XUNO Parent Portal to approve any events or to make any payments.
Alternatively you may still request a paper form or make payments by Cash, Debit/ Credit Card at the General Office or pay online using BPAY and Direct Deposit.
