Parent Payment Information
Parent Payment Information
Frankston Primary School is committed to ensuring timely communication between school-home about parent and carer payment information for each year.
This page outlines the parent and carer payment information that is subject to school council approval each year before being forwarded to parents and carers.
Further information for parents may be found through the Education Department – Parent Payment Policy

Extra-Curricular Items and Activities
Frankston Primary School offers a range of items and activities that enhance or broaden the schooling experience of students and are above and beyond what the school provides in order to deliver the Curriculum. These are provided on a user-pays basis – such as extra sporting events, camps, excursions, incursions, aerobics competition, choir performance requirements.
Frankston Primary School chooses to communicate and send this information to parents on a termly basis as these events arise. However, always endeavours to communicate these events as early as possible in order to assist parents and carers with family financial planning.
Financial Support for Families
Frankston Primary School understands families can experience financial difficulty. Help is available, including:
- Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund – this program provides funding for eligible students, including those in out of home care, and holders of eligible financially means-tested cards (such as health care cards), to attend activities like camps, sporting activities, excursions and incursions that are offered on a user-pays basis.
- Affordable School Uniforms – delivered by State Schools Relief, this program helps cover costs such as school uniforms, shoes, and other essential school items where families are experiencing financial hardship or short-term crisis.
- Payment plans for Extra-Curricular Items and Activities.
- Second-hand uniform store operating termly.
