Cash Box
- Request for a cash box must be made by email to the Treasurer (a week prior to the event if possible). Please specify the total amount required and in what bill/coin specification.
- Both the Treasurer and event Chairperson should sign the Funds Receive Form when the cash box is exchanged.
- Cash boxes should be maintained in the school safe when not in use or overnight. Mrs. Craley in the School Office will assist in sorting/retrieving these. Ideally, cash boxes should not leave school property.
