There are some costs associated with going to school that you may find it helpful to plan and budget for.
Costs to consider include:
uniforms
school books and equipment
excursions
- co-curricular activities.
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.
Voluntary school contribution at our school
At the start of each year we may ask for a voluntary school contribution to enhance our educational and sporting programs.
We try to keep any additional costs to a minimum and may be able to assist families who are having financial difficulty paying schooling costs.
Making a Payment
All money that comes to school should be deposited in the box at the front office. The school accepts cash, cheque (to be made out to Gymea North PS unless otherwise stated) or credit card. Online payments can be made using the 'Make a Payment' button at the top of this page. The office also has EFTPOS facilities available until 11.00am each day.
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.
