Payments

We are able to offer a range of payment methods, to allow parents / caregivers to choose a method which suits them best.

ON-LINE PAYMENTS (Preferred Method):

Payments can be made via credit card or internet banking online through the KAMAR portal. Simply login with the User ID and password you received and choose the Financial option. Using the Portal you can choose the specific transactions you want to pay and are able to make full or partial payments.

Currently there is no surcharge for making payments through the KAMAR portal.

If a charge is not showing (e.g. for a trip or ID card) please contact Vicki Baker, Finance Support Manager, so it can be added to your child’s account.
