School Banking Reminder
Welcome back to the School Banking for 2020. Don't forget Thursday is School
Banking day.
If your child participates in School Banking, be sure to send
their deposit book to school with them Thursdays.
Each classroom has a grey
student banking bag they use to send their classes' deposits to the office.
For every deposit made at school, no
matter how big or small, students will receive an online reward token.
2020 Treetop Savers AdventureThis year, the Dollarmites (Pru, Addy,
Spen, Lucas and
Pat) are ready to take children on a Treetop Savers adventure to the enchanted Treehouse of
Savings.
Here they’ll discover lots of fun financial
activities and rewards for saving.
Many surveyed parents think it’s important to make learning about
money engaging and to reward good saving behaviour*.
And this year, we’re
changing our School Banking rewards for the better.
We’re introducing new
eco-friendly and reusable rewards, alongside other rewards that encourage
creativity, as well as indoor and outdoor play
Term 1 Treetop Savers rewards
When your child makes 10 deposits with School Banking, they can redeem one of our Treetop Savers rewards.
Term 1 rewards are available now, while stocks last!
Get involved in the School Banking
program.
New Prep students will receive an information flyer explaining student banking
over the coming weeks.
In the
meantime, you can get your child involved in the School Banking program by
opening them a Commonwealth Bank Youthsaver account at any Commonwealth Bank
branch, over the phone on 132 221, or via NetBank if you are an existing
customer with NetBank access.
Remember to
take in identification for you and your child (driver’s license and birth
certificate). You will receive a Dollarmites wallet and deposit book that your
child will use to participate in the program.
Our school
receives funds from Commonwealth Bank as a result of our school banking
program.
Thank you for
supporting our school and helping to teach your child the benefits of saving
regularly.
The School
Banking Program at Meridan State College is run by a team of wonderful
volunteers on a roster.
