A voluntary payment is requested from parents towards the cost of materials, services and facilities used by K-10 students in the educational program.

Whilst contributions are voluntary, the quality of our teaching and learning program will be maximised when each family makes its contribution to the cost of supplementing funding gained from other sources, including the State and Commonwealth Governments.

The PWPS Voluntary Contribution rate is set at:

• $30 per Kindergarten student, and:
• $60 per Pre-Primary to year 6 student.

Voluntary Contribution payments support the following curriculum areas:

• English - $15
• Maths - $15
• Science - $15
• HASS - $5
• The Arts - $5
• Health and PE - $5

Payments are encouraged at the start of the school year, but can be made all year round:

• when paying for the school booklist via West School Supplies
• QKR!
• via Direct Debit (BSB 066 040,  ACC 1990 3450, REF Student surname, First initial, Room number)
• via Eftpos at the front office

The participation of a student in an extra-cost optional activity is conditional on payment of the costs of that activity. You will be requested to make payment for each activity as it approaches.

The amounts below are indicative only and is the maximum amount that families can be requested to pay in a school year if students are participating in each activity. 

Please note that these are anticipated activities and maximum charges and not a guarantee that they will occur.

• Year 6 students may choose to purchase a leavers shirt ($35) or a leavers jumper ($45) to wear during the school year, instead of the regular school uniform
