5Our voluntary school contribution

Voluntary school contribution and other costs

At the start of each year we ask for a voluntary school contribution to enhance our educational and sporting programs. The voluntary school contribution is set in line with the NSW Department of Education policy and isĀ $47.00 per student (capped at $99.00 per family).

We try to keep any additional costs to a minimum. In some classes, we will ask parents to purchase workbooks for individual pupil use, which may include Maths, Spelling and/or English workbooks.

Should parents experience difficulty in making the contribution do not hesitate to contact the principal.

There are other start-up costs which you may find helpful to plan and budget for including your child's:

  • Uniforms
  • School books and equipment
  • Excursions
  • Extra-curricular activities.

We always look to minimise our costs and will advise you when there are charges for a particular activity.
