Preps in 2019

If you have a child who is expected to start Prep in 2019 and have not yet put in an application, please contact Jodie Davis (Registrar) as soon as possible. Interviews for Prep places will take place later this term, parents will be advised of interview dates closer to the time.

Student Banking

The School has two student banking options available to students of all ages.

 

Bendigo Bank offers a great student banking program that is suitable for students from Junior School to Senior School.  The Commonwealth Bank also offers their Dollarmites student banking program.

 

Student banking day will now be on a Tuesday. Bank books for either program can be handed into Reception on Monday or Tuesday mornings. Once the bank books have been processed, they will be returned to Reception. Students will then be able collect their bank book from Reception on Wednesday.

 

Should a child not collect their bank book on a Wednesday, it will simply remain in Reception within a secure location until they do collect it.  We hope that by having the children collect their own bank books, this will help them to learn responsibility, while reducing the likelihood of the bank books going missing.

 

More information regarding the two student banking programs can be obtained from Reception.
