Welcome back to all our school banking students for term 2.

School Banking is every Friday morning in the Achiever Block alcove between 8.15am – 8.40am.

The book light reward item is now available for you to redeem your tokens for and I hope to have some in stock by this Friday. We still have some handball rewards on hand so if you wish to redeem your tokens for one of them be quick as they are very popular but don’t forget that we have other rewards available for you to exchange your tokens for too.

“NEWS FLASH”

Would you like to be the new Dollarmite?

The Commonwealth Bank are running a great competition as part of their centenary celebrations where one lucky school banking student from within Australia will win the chance to become dollarmized as a new dollarmite character and live in coinland for a whole year. The winning student will also receive an annual movie pass for their whole family and $1500 for their class towards an excursion and the school will win 25 Apple Ipads. There are 50 runnerup prizes also and to be in with a chance to win all you have to do is make a minimum of 5 deposits into your school banking account between 16^th April and 30^th June 2012, then give them your best saving tip in 25 words or less at http://www.commbank.com.au/personal/youth-students/kids-banking/dollarmites/dollarmize-yourself.aspx.

It’s that easy, so get your thinking caps on and start writing your saving tips down and keep depositing your hard earned money into your account and you could win this fantastic prize.

School Banking gives schools an easy, fun and interactive way to teach children money management skills they’ll use for the rest of their lives.

Through the program, kids can bank at school, giving them hands-on banking experience in a fun and interactive environment so if you would like to be a part of this great program just head on down to your nearest Commonwealth Bank Branch and ask to open a youth saver account today.
