Student Tax File Numbers CBC Fremantle is authorised to process Tax File Numbers for students. It is a much simpler process by applying through the College than other methods, which require identification points.

Students who are wanting part time or casual work need to obtain a form from Mr Joel Moss or Student Services. It is recommended that all students should apply for a Tax File Number through the College before they graduate or leave for employment.

Wanted ... old school uniforms CBC Fremantle Drama department is searching for donations of uniforms, belts and shoes too old or untidy to be used again to be donated for use in the Term 2 production of Lord of the Flies. No uniform is too battered or too old!

Please leave items at College Reception, or ask your son to drop them off to Mrs Jeffreys in the Arts office.
