We are excited to announce our school will be transitioning to an upgraded School Bytes finance system on 15 May 2023!
In preparation for the transition to a simplified finance system for both you and the school, please register for the SchoolBytes Portal by going to https://portal.schoolbytes.education
What is the School Bytes Portal
The School Bytes Portal provides flexibility for you to conveniently:
- Make school payments online (including paying for multiple siblings at once)
- Use a family credit to pay for an activity or school contributions
- Download a receipt for payments made
- View all historical payments in one place
- Complete and submit digital permission notes
- View the status of all permission notes
- Request a refund if required
- This can be done where you want at any time: day or night.
Through the portal, you will easily be able to download a receipt once a payment has been made and have access to view all historical payments when needed. Online payments are processed in real-time and can be viewed by school staff immediately.
While our preference is for payments to be made via the portal, we will still accept payment via cash, cheque, money order and EFTPOS.
School Contributions and Financial Assistance
There are some costs associated with going to school that you may find it helpful to plan and budget for.
Costs to consider include:
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 the Voluntary School Contribution policy.
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.
