COMMBANK SCHOOL BANKING
Unfortunately this message to you is to inform of the Commonwealth Banks recent decision to remove the School Banking program from Primary Schools.
“The CBA are unable to continue providing programs in schools and have had to make a difficult decision to close the School Banking program nationally.
As a result, the CommBank School Banking program will not be returning to schools beyond 2021.”
While the in-school program will close, the Youthsaver Accounts you opened for your child/ren are still functional and accessible, but we are now unable to process deposits into the accounts for you.
Thank you to all of the school bankers out there, who have not only started some great savings for their own futures but also contributed to some really valuable fundraising for the school over the years.
I would like to let you all know a couple of dates to keep in mind please…
Last reward orders in by Thursday 11th November, Week 5.
As a few of you may have noticed, rewards have been taking extra time to arrive of late so I want to allow for plenty of time for delivery of those final ones ordered.
If you know your child has collected 10 or more tokens and an order form, feel free to send it in! The tokens do not need to be returned.
There are currently 3 rewards unavailable - Scented Stackable Highlighters, Snowy Origami Set and the Scratch Art Cards.
Last banking deposits will be processed on Thursday 9th December, Week 9.
If there is any more information received that is relevant to you and your child’s account, I will relay this to you as soon as is possible.
Again, thank you for your support.
Megan, School Banking Volunteer
