We recently welcomed Start Smart to deliver their free, financial education workshops to students from Year 1 to Year 6. Delivered in class to students by a facilitator, Start Smart changes the way young people learn about money. By making money management interactive, engaging and fun, our students were equipped with the confidence and competence they need to make smart decisions about money.

Our school has proudly joined the Commonwealth Bank’s Start Smart Program in its mission to improve the financial literacy of Australia’s young people. Overall, the program proved to be a highly beneficial experience for students and was thoroughly enjoyed by all.  Students will also be participating in financial literacy activities within the classroom. We hope that these workshops and lessons prepare the students for their future saving and spending.
