There is a locked drop box on the door of the daycare office in Room 17 where payment can be made.

We are not responsible for any cash that is left in the drop box.  We ask that all cash payments are handed directly to the Director or Assistant Director only.

All invoices are mailed directly to your home so please ensure your address is up to date.
