CREDIT UNION
Dear Parent/Carer,
We continue to offer all pupils the opportunity to join Credit Union.
A credit union for pupils has many benefits.
- Pupils learn about saving money and how to manage money effectively
- Pupils learn about the community spirit of a credit union and about dividends
- Pupils learn responsibility and ownership skills by engaging weekly/monthly in the credit union process.
We access the Pollok credit union already set up in the area with SpireView Housing. Each Wednesday morning we accompany pupils to the Spireview office to make their deposits, no matter how much or how little.
Pupils do not need to deposit every week and the amount of money does not matter as this is more about the learning process.
If you would like your child to sign up for this opportunity, please notify the office and we will send a form out for you to complete.
Kind Regards,
Jane McShane
Head Teacher
