Bringing money to School
Money required for specific purposes i.e. canteen, bus
fare, a school activity, should be the only money brought
to school . Children should have a zippered pocket, or some
other secure means, to safeguard any money they may bring
to school. We impress upon children not to leave money in
bags or classrooms, as lost money creates much unhappiness
and inconvenience.
When sending money to school for special purposes, please
place the correct amount in a sealed envelope ( along with
reply slip when necessary) and clearly mark the outside of
the envelope with your child's name and class, the amount
of money enclosed and the purpose for which is intended. If
paying by cheque please make it out to Albion Park Public
School and write your child’s name clearly on the back of
the cheque, especially if using a business cheque.
