Financial contributions and assistance

Voluntary school contributions

Like all NSW public schools, we can request contributions to enhance our educational and sporting programs including elective subjects. School contributions help provide additional educational resources for the benefit of students. Payment is voluntary.

For more information, visit theĀ Voluntary School Contribution policy.

At the start of each year we may ask for a voluntary school contribution to enhance our educational and sporting programs.

Financial assistance

If you are unable to pay school contributions because of financial hardship, you may be eligible for assistance from the school.

Our principal will ensure no student or family suffers any discrimination or embarrassment over the inability to pay school contributions.

Financial support is available to help eligible families with school related costs.

Centrelink child care benefit

Families using outside of school hours care may be eligible to claim for this child care benefit to help with these costs.

School student transport scheme

The School Student Transport Scheme provides subsidised travel to and from school for eligible students on train, bus, ferry and light rail services during school term. It also offers subsidised travel to and from school in private vehicles in areas where there is no public transport available.

Assisted school travel program

The assisted school travel program helps eligible students with a disability to travel to and from school safely.

Schooling costs

There are some costs associated with going to school that you may find it helpful to plan and budget for.

Costs to consider include:

  • uniforms

  • school books and equipment

  • excursions

  • co-curricular activities.
