If you are unable to pay the full amount owing upfront for any reason, please contact the Administration Office, and we will be happy to arrange a payment plan for you.

Incursions & Excursions

Excursions and incursions help students learn through real-world experiences. To join, families need to pay before the event. If money is tight, they can talk to the Principal or Manager Corporate Services to set up a payment plan. Without payment or a plan, students can’t go. Refunds are possible if a student misses the event, but transport costs won’t be refunded. Payment deadlines and refund steps will be shared ahead of time.

Payment Policy

Valuables 

Bringing toys, games, mobile phones or valuable items (other than for special reasons) is discouraged.  Invariably this results in loss or damage followed by a great deal of upset.  

Mobile phones are not encouraged at school.  In an emergency, parents can contact their child via the Administration Office.  Please refer to the Student Mobile Phone Policy.
