Dear parents,

Concerning our three core services, the parents’ association (APEEE) hereby wishes to inform about the following two topics:

• 2021-2022: reimbursement of the financial safety buffer,
• 2022-2023: price setting for the APEEE services.

Reimbursement for the school year 2021-2022

In October 2021, the parents were informed by the APEEE of a price increase for the canteen service and the extra-curricular activities. This included a 3% safety buffer in case of unplanned losses related to COVID-19 closures. The APEEE also informed of its intention to refund this amount if the APEEE’s financial situation would allow so.

We hereby confirm that this financial buffer does not need to be touched and that the APEEE will refund the parents via a credit note. Therefore, concerning the canteen and the extracurricular service each family will receive a credit note covering the 3% financial safety buffer.

Furthermore, for families whose child was enrolled in the Woluwe canteen service in 2021-2022, and where:

• the entire class had to be quarantined,
• the secondary cycle school class did not attend on site education learning due to the rotation system, and where,
• the classes were not held due to school closure the last three school 3 days before the Christmas break.

In these cases, a credit note covering food costs of 1,95€ per missed meal will be issued. The credit note(s) will be deducted from your first upcoming invoice (November 2022).

Price setting for the APEEE services school year 2022-2023

We would like to inform parents of the new pricing of the APEEE services. As mentioned in our message sent in May 2022, the high inflation rates have an impact on the overall costs. This means that the APEEE has to increase the prices in order to provide the services for the present school year 2022-2023. In the message in May, we also indicated the estimated price increase in order, to alert before you enrolled yourself for the APEEE services for the school year 2022-2023.

Now, after a careful analysis of our estimated costs, we have established the prices for the school year 2022-2023 as follows :

Woluwe canteen service

The final price for the school year 2022-2023 has been increased by 11.60%.
