Donations & Bank Acc

At Sunnyhills School we are ineligible to opt in to the Ministry of Education donations scheme, as a result we are in the position where we need to request donations from our families and whānau.

The funds raised through school donations go towards enriching the curriculum, upgrading technology, and providing better classroom materials. This ensures that students have access to the best resources, helping them thrive academically. Your generous donations are crucial for providing better resources and enhancing the quality of school life of our learners. Without your support, we would not be able to create the best possible environment for our students to succeed. Some examples of what we are using the school donation money for this year include:

• Funding for Learning Assistants to provide support for our students and teachers which is not funded by the Ministry of Education. 

• Curriculum resources and IT equipment.

• Professional development for teachers that make our staff better at teaching your children.

The Board has set the donation at $330 per child. This is a slight increase of $10 per child due to the increased costs the school is facing. 

All donations are eligible for a 33.33% tax credit through IRD (refer to IRD website: Tax credits for donations for more information). School donations can be paid through Kindo which is our preferred option for all school payments or at the school office.

Methods of payment

• Preferred method of payment: Our Shop - Kindo is our online payment system - payment is preferred via Kindo

• Payment may also be made into the school bank account (details to the right), please use your child's name as the reference.
