Did you know you can claim one third of this back? We've helped thousands of parents just like you get back their school donation rebate, easily, quickly and online. We can get lost receipts for you too!
To date we've refunded over $700,000 to Kiwi parents and know that there are millions still to go.
Watch the video below to see how it works.
Here is what happy parents have had to say:
"Many thanks!! The refund is now in my account!! Thank you for making this process so easy and straightforward!!"
"Wow that's fantastic. You guys rock!! Excellent service, really wrapped with that. Thanks so much :-) will totally spread the word."

Do you think primary teachers and principals should be striking? Thousands of teachers have taken industrial action on Wednesday, with dozens of rallies planned around the country. They aim to gain attention for better pay, conditions and incentives to attract new teachers. Although about 30,000 people in the profession are involved in the strike, not everyone agrees with it.
So, what are your thoughts on the strike? Do you think teachers deserve better pay? Or should they have stayed around the negotiating table for longer? Are you a teacher or parent with views on the topic? Let us know in the replies!

The thefts have occurred from vehicles parked in public car parks on The Esplanade and at Percy’s Reserve over the past month.
“While Police patrol these areas regularly, we encourage owners to keep vehicles safe by taking some very basic precautionary measures,” Community South Hutt Valley Sergeant Cameron Cross says.
“The easiest way to protect your valuables is to remove them from your vehicle. If you do need to leave items unattended, make sure they’re out of sight and your vehicle is locked. Also, park in busy, open and well-lit areas whenever possible.
“Items stolen recently include handbags and wallets containing credit and debit cards. Cards with contactless payment functions are particularly vulnerable and are being used immediately at local service stations.
“Anyone with information about thefts from vehicles, or anyone who has had property stolen is urged to contact Police immediately — the sooner we know about this the better chance we have of catching the offenders and preventing further crime.”
Information can also be provided anonymously by calling Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
