The school’s response… (updated)

Dear {Fe},
From the position of Year Seven there are a number of things for you to know:-
1.  The boys who’s excursion fees were not paid were told as a whole to
remind their Parents.
2. Nothing will be EVER done to make {Toto} ever feel in fear or intimidated.
3. Please do NOT worry about this fee. {Toto} will have all the excursions
the same as anyone else.
4. You have enough problems without this worry so please be assured that
{Toto} will be alright from this end.

Hope everything else is well with you.

Thank you {first name of Year 7 Co-ordinator}.

{Toto} was so upset when he came home.  Just the idea that his Dad isn’t paying the fees for a school that he loves SO much was enough to fill him with sadness and confusion.

Thank you again for the reassurance.

Kind regards,

{Fe}

UPDATED to add:

Toto came home from school feeling very relieved and happy.  The Year 7 Co-ordinator took him aside today and told him that he never EVER has to worry about school fees, money or excursions ever again.  He reassured him that his place in the school is secure, and that he won’t be involving him in any further discussions regarding fees.

What a gem!
