Arbor and Cashless Payments

School uses Arbor as its management software platform. Parents are required to download the Arbor Parent app.

Arbor allows parents/guardian to register their child for a club or trip, and manage payments all from one place. You can also use it to check in on your child's attendance, behavior & academic progress.

To use the Arbor Parent App, follow these general steps:

Download the App: Search for "Arbor Parent" in the App Store (iOS) or Google Play Store (Android) and download the app.

Log In:

  •     Download the Arbor app from the App Store or Google Play
  •     Click ‘install’ on Android or ‘Get’ on iPhone and open the app
  •     Enter your email address and select forgot password
  •     Instructions will be sent to your email address
  •     Accept the terms & conditions and enter your child’s birthday

    Explore the Dashboard: Once logged in, you will typically see a dashboard that provides an overview of your child’s information, such as attendance, academic progress, and upcoming events.

    Check Attendance: You can view your child's attendance records, including any absences or late arrivals.

    View Academic Progress: Access reports on your child’s performance in various subjects, including grades and assignments.

    Communicate: Enable notifications to receive alerts about important updates, such as school events or your child's performance.

    Settings: Explore the settings within the app to customize your experience, such as notification preferences or updating your profile information.

    Instead of using physical cash the Academy uses the cashless online payment system through Arbor. Funds are uploaded onto the Arbor app and this transfers money from your bank onto your child account.
