EDUCATION IS SERIOUS

Embrace the concepts of praise and blame with regard to your child.  Both are developmental.

OFFICIAL SCHOOL UNIFORM

As from January 2014, Rand Park Primary will have a school jersey with a school badge embroidered on it.  Plain navy blue jerseys will no longer be allowed.  This item will be available from our stockists soon.

COMPULSORY SCHOOL FEES – 2013

The school fee tariff is R5 900 per learner per year, and may be paid over 10 months.  Payment options are as follows:

Full payment at the beginning of the year; or Three pro-rata payments payable at the end of Term 1 2 and 3; or ten monthly instalments of R590 beginning January with the final (10th) instalment due end of October.

ALL PARENTS ARE EXPECTED TO HAVE PAID IN FULL BY THE END OF OCTOBER.  AN URGENT APPEAL IS MADE TO ALL PARENTS WHO ARE IN ARREARS TO PAY THE FEES BY THIS TIME.  ACCOUNTS IN ARREARS WILL BE HANDED OVER TO OUR DEBT-COLLECTION AGENCY FROM THE BEGINNING OF NOVEMBER.

OLD DEBTS HAVE ALREADY BEEN HANDED OVER.

Many thanks to the parents who have already paid in full. 

SPONSORSHIP

Would those of you wishing to make a cash sponsorship donation (to assist indigent parents/learners to pay a portion of the 2013 school fees), please ensure that you indicate clearly on the cheque, deposit slip, Internet banking or envelope, that the amount is for SPONSORSHIP (SCHOOL FEES)

40 YEARS

As the school is 40 YEARS old this year I would like to ask parents to support any initiative that we might have in order to celebrate this auspicious occasion.

CLOSING TIME FOR FRIDAYS – TERM 4

As from today the school will close every Friday at 13:30 for the Senior Phase (Grade 4 – 7).  This is due to the fact that we are not writing Cycle Tests this term.  The Foundation Phase will close at 13:00 as usual.  Please note that detention for Senior Phase will therefore start at 13:30 and finish at 15:00.

SCHOOL LEAVERS

Should your child be leaving the school at year end (grade 1 – 6) please forward a letter to this effect to the class teacher urgently.
