Stuents in Years 3 to Year 6 are also stillrewuired to wear masks while indoors, so please ensure your child comes to school witha mask each day. If they have forgotten there are some available in the classrooms.
SCHOOL FEES
Term 1 fees are now overdue. Please conatct the school to arrange payment. If you have a direct debit set up there is nothing you need to do, this will continue to process as per the agreement. If you would like to set up a direct debit please email finance@stclaresofficer.catholic.edu.au to request a direct debit form.
For those families who have a Pension or Health Care Card plesae ensure the school has been provided with a copy of your new card when it is received. This will ensure we can apply for the funding to help reduce your school fees.
