Donations and Activity Costs

SCHOOL DONATIONS : 

Red Beach School is rated 415 on the equity index (EQI) which replaces the School decile system. This rating does not qualify our school to be part of the School donations scheme where schools with an EQI number of 432 or higher can get a payment of $154.13 per student in exchange for not asking for donations - except for donations for school camps.

If we were eligible to be in the scheme, based on a roll of 580, we would be receiving $89,395.40 more in funding! 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.
