Parent Pay

Soon Christchurch Primary School will become a cashless school for trips and other payments such as music lessons & clubs. Please note that schools dinners still need to be paid via the ISS payment portal.

ParentPay is used by the school for students to pay for their meals and also for music lessons and trips which avoids the need for students to be carrying large amounts of cash. To help reduce costs in our school, correspondence is now being sent via email. This is done primarily via ParentPay.  Please ensure that the school holds a current email  address for you. Remember to inform the school should your email address or contact numbers change.
