Donations and Activity Fees

SCHOOL DONATIONS :

Red Beach School is rated decile 9. We receive only a fraction of the Ministry of Education funding that is given to Low Decile Schools (approximately $800 per student LESS than a decile 1 school).

This is why we depend on our parent community for significant levels of support and fundraising to try to give our students as many opportunities as possible and not disadvantage them.

We therefore ask parents to make an annual donation, which the Board of Trustees tries to keep to a minimum, but without which, would be impossible to function. Any payments through the year of instalments, would also be appreciated.

*2019 Donation Requested*		*Compulsory Fees*
One Child	$190	Activity Fee	$45 per student
Two Children	$330
Three or more children	$470
