Event payments

No more cash
in school bags.

Turfhall collects event payments through Karri, the school payments app. This website is where you see what is on — Karri is where you pay.

No cash in envelopes, no reply slips lost in a school bag, and the office can see who has paid without counting a thing.

  1. 1 Find the event here. Date, time, what it costs and what to bring — all on this page.
  2. 2 Open Karri. The payment request is waiting under your child’s name, or scan the school’s QR code with the app.
  3. 3 Pay by card in a few taps. Karri sends a reminder before the closing date if you have not paid yet.
