Does anyone know when the payment for this is due?

I know it’s normally around this week every year but I haven’t heard anything about it this year as of yet...

Thanks in advance for the info

Yes that’s the one. Is paid in arrears at the end of the school year based on the number of days attendance.

There are different rates depending on the distance from the school. It’s not a whole lot but every little helps.
