A Change in School Crossing Times
The school crossing on Taylors Lane, between Eildon Parade and Turramurra Drive, will now be staffed by crossing supervisors between 8.10am and 8.56am. Afternoon crossing times will remain the same.
Top Car Park
Just a friendly reminder that the car parking bays closest to the road (West side) are allocated for staff only.
Parents and general visitors are most welcome to use the other car spaces.
Signs will be refreshed shortly to indicate staff car park spaces.
Thank you for your support and understanding with this matter.
School Fees
Accounts for 2023 have been emailed out to families.
Any families who wish to pay via direct debit and have submitted their forms after their first payment date will have their direct debit dates extended to ensure their total fees are paid.
Statements will continue to be emailed to families on a monthly basis, if you do not receive your statement please check your spam/junk folders alternatively contact the office at office@ssrowville.catholic.edu.au.
Those families who prefer to pay by instalments, credit card and direct debit forms are available please see attachment below, please note previous payment plans do not roll over as amounts to be paid vary and new forms will need to be completed and can be submitted to the office as soon as possible.
Alternatively families can setup regular payments from your own bank account if you wish our bank details are as follows:-

BSB 083347
Account 648897965
Please use the your family reference number found at the bottom of your statement and your surname when making payments.
If any family is under financial hardship please contact Tom on principal@ssrowville.catholic.edu.au
Late Attendance
If children arrive at school after 8:50 am they must be signed in by their parent and take a Late Pass Card to give to their teacher. Parents can use their smartphone or the Ipad at the front office to do this. If using your smartphone, scan the QR code that says Front Desk. Failure to do this will possibly trigger an SMS to the Parent as an unexplained absence.
Thank you for your co-operation
School Absentee notification
If your child will not be attending school you must notify the office by 9.30am on the day they will be away. The preferred method is to use the Skoolbag App and the eform Absentee Form.
The other method is to ring the school office on 9755 4222 and choose option 1 to leave a message. Please do not send emails to teachers as they may be away or not be able to check their emails before the attendance roll is done.
An SMS will be sent to parents that have not advised the school. This is now a legal requirement.
