A reminder to parents that the payments for the Year 5 Camp are now due. If you have not yet made payment, please ensure you contact the office as soon as possible to arrange this. The office will begin to send notifications home to parents this week, for those who have yet to pay.

Year 6 Camp

Mrs Cassell will be providing students with the letters and permission slips for Year 6 camp today. The camp is being held in November, and will cost $380 per student. Please see the letter for more detailed information. If you wish to begin a payment plan for this camp, please contact the office as soon as possible to arrange.

Payment: Plans & How to Pay

Payment plans are available for all families, whether you are experiencing financial difficulties or you would prefer to pay for excursions / camps in a lengthy timeframe. Payments must be made regularly, and must be completed by 29th November 2019. This is to ensure all of our excursions are reconciled and meet financial deadlines.

There are several ways to pay for excursions and school activities at Dayboro State School:

  • Online payments - BPOINT

By clicking on the BPOINT link on your invoice, it will take you directly to the website to pay.

  • Paying by phone.

If you do not wish to process payments online, you are able to pay by phone using a credit/debit card via BPOINT 1300 631 073.

Please quote the CRN and invoice number located at the bottom of the invoice. .

  • Paying in person. You can pay in person at the Dayboro State School Administration using EFTPOS, Visa, MasterCard or cash.

For the safety of our students and staff, we are progressing towards becoming a cashless school. We no longer hold cash on the premises, and as such are only able to accept the correct cash as we do not have any change available. Unfortunately, we are no longer offering the option of BPay at Dayboro SS. If you are using BPay or have the school bank account details saved in your banking history, we respectfully request you delete these details. BPay is no longer recommended by the Department of Education to use for these reasons, and as such we need to comply with policy. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Voluntary Contributions

It’s not too late to donate to the Voluntary Financial Contribution Scheme! The below details outline the cost involved, as well as a link to pay online. Payments can be made directly to the school also via Cash or EFTPOS.

 The costs involved in the Voluntary Financial Contributions are:

  • $50 per student; or
  • $100 per family of two or more enrolled students.

The Voluntary Financial Contribution Scheme is approved by the P&C each year, and is aligned to the Department of Education policy requirements. By donating to the Voluntary Financial Contribution Scheme, Dayboro SS is able to provide classroom resources, home readers and other consumables to enhance learning activities for Literary, Numeracy, Science, Art and Technology.

National Tree Day

On Friday 26th July we celebrated National Tree Day by planting some beautiful native trees in our Rainforest Corridor, extending the existing area along our back fence. A massive thank-you goes to Darren Grimwade for donating $500 to the school to purchase the plants, to Mrs Smith and the SEMP committee for organising the day and the timetable for students to participate, and to our wonderful students who eagerly and carefully planted all the trees. A massive thank-you also goes to our Schools Officer, George. Last week George hired a ‘Dingo’ and dug the holes in preparation for planting. Mrs Smith and George ensured there were enough gloves, masks and mulch for the students to use, and George has been busily preparing each tree to ensure its establishment into new soil takes. It is the little things like this that often go unnoticed, but we as a school are very appreciative for all the extra effort our staff go to, to ensure students’ learning is not just based in a classroom. Thank-you so much to all those involved in the success of this day!

Dayboro State School is very fortunate to have such dedicated and enthusiastic staff, and I am so grateful to be a part of this school and community.

Kind regards,

Clare Ingham
