Attendance dues and activity fees
We have many options to support families and money should never prevent our learners in getting the education they deserve. If at any time the attendance dues or activity fees are an issue, our principal, Emalene Cull, or office administrator, Caroline Morunga can assist. Any inquiries will be kept confidential.
