Students' Pocket Money

Cashless transactions for a safe, convenient school experience.

Hospital Hill went cashless from Term 3, which began on 10 May 2021. Students no longer use cash on the school premises — pocket money is held on a Co-operative Bank Visa Smart Card that parents top up from their phones.

Key points

  • No cash allowed: to keep the school safe and efficient, students should not bring cash to school.
  • Visa Co-operative Bank Smart Cards: every student must have one. Parents or guardians load pocket money onto the card using Lipa na M-Pesa.
  • Canteen access: only students with a valid Co-operative Visa card can use the school canteen — please make sure your son carries his card at all times.
