S6 Prom Payments (Mr Fulton)
Please make sure that you have paid the full £40 cost of prom BEFORE the end of term using iPayimpact. Please contact the school office if you need to set up an account. If you are having trouble making this payment, you can speak to Mr Fulton, Mr I’Anson or Mrs Hardie for advice. A spreadsheet detailing how much everyone still has to pay will be placed on the counter at the prefect base. Make sure you check this before making any further payments.
If you have not made any payments before the holidays, it will be assumed you do not wish to attend prom and you will not be allocated a place. Thank you.
