Voluntary Contribution Information
The parents in Our Lady’s Grove Primary School have always supported the school with Voluntary Contributions. Your financial support is crucial to the running of the school. Your Voluntary Contribution ensures enhanced school resources for the benefit of our children.
A capitation grant per student is paid by The Department of Education & Science (DES) each year. However, this grant does not come close to covering the actual costs incurred by the school. This shortfall is normally made up through Voluntary Contributions, fundraising and Hall Rental income.
We are extremely grateful to those who have contributed to the school finances for the last calendar year. We hope that you will do so again this year.
Did you know Tax Relief is available to the school?
If your total contribution is equal to or exceeds €250, this allows the school to claim a tax refund. A contribution of €250 allows a tax refund of €112.32. This increases your contribution by approx. 45%. Your €250 contribution is in effect worth €362.32 to the school. This applies to both PAYE and self-employed taxpayers under the regulations.
Please note that school Voluntary Contributions operate on a calendar basis because tax relief is only claimable on this basis.
Payment Methods
The preferred payment method for your Voluntary Contribution is now available on Aladdin ePayments. An automatic email receipt will be provided. This payment method is now enabled for instalments. If you have paid your Voluntary Contribution in full and would like to remove the item from your Aladdin app please contact admin@olgps.ie
