Payment Options

Payment by E-transfer

  • E-transfer payments can be made with 3 schedule options:
    • One lump sum paid no later than September 1 of the school year in question
    • Two payments: one on September 1 and one on January 1 of the school years in question
    • 9 monthly e-transfers sent on the 1st of each month, September to May. We encourage you to schedule these e-transfers when you make your 1st payment so as to not miss a payment and be subject to a $25 late penalty per transfer.
  • Please include the excursion fee and fundraising goal in your September 1st payment. If the fundraising goal is raised by the family, the money will be refunded at the end of the school year.  If the goal is not reached, the difference will be refunded.
  • If monthly e-transfer is not received by the 7th day of the month, a $25 late fee will be charged and the student will not be permitted to attend class until payment has been received. If monthly payment is late more than once, the monthly payment option will be revoked and the remainder of the semester's tuition must be paid in full prior to the student returning to class.  


Payment by cheque

  • Please make cheques payable to: PHCPC or Park Heights Creative Preschool Co-op.
  • NSF Cheques will be charged a $15 service charge and immediate repayment is necessary.
  • Tuition payments are by post-dated cheques with the option to pay: 
    •  One lump sum dated no later than September 1 of the school year in question
    •  Two payments: one dated September 1 and one dated January 1 of the school years in question
    •  9 Monthly cheques dated for the 1st of each month, September to May.
  • Please include the excursion fee in your September 1st payment. 
  • A post-dated cheque for May 1 to cover your fundraising goal must also be submitted by September 1st. If the goal is raised by the family, the cheque will be destroyed. If the goal is not raised, the cheque will be deposited and the difference will be refunded.

    All payments (including post-dated cheques) must be received by September 1st of the school year in question.

Fundraising Goals & Expectations 

Fundraising is an important part of supporting our preschool.

  • Funds raised are used for operating expenses, extraordinary purchases, and to build upon a savings account for future extraordinary events such as a school/classroom fire.
  • Parent assistance is requested and expected.  Expectations are that families raise a minimum amount depending upon child attendance (see the fee schedule above). A review of fundraising amounts will take place in April.  If the set amount has been raised by the family, the cheque will be destroyed/money will be refunded.  If the set amount has not been raised, the difference will be refunded. 
  • Please note that only the net funds received by the preschool count towards the fundraising goal and not the gross expenditure towards the fundraisers.
  • Past events include:  Moms Pantry Fundraiser, Wing Night, Vessey’s Seeds, and Purdy’s chocolates.

Refund Policy

  • Withdrawals are accepted with 30 days notice. 
  • The withdrawal deadline is March 1st. 
  • Tuition fees are non-refundable after March 1st. 
  • Registration fees, co-operative membership fees, and excursion fees are non-refundable.
  • Tuition fees and fundraising goals will be refunded based on 30 days notice.
