It is advisable that all parent/carers have knowledge of the Diocesan School Fee Management Policy, available on the school’s website.  A Frequently Asked Questions document is also provided to assist families with interpretation.

Invoicing and Distribution Of School Fee Statements

Annual school fee Invoice/Statements for this year have been sent home via email on Monday 4 February. If you have not received this correspondence, please contact the school office to request a replacement.  Accounts are due 30 days after the date of invoice unless you have either a School Fee Agreement or Fee Concession arrangement in place.  

Introduction of the Excursion Levy

This year we have introduced an Excursion Levy for each child.  This is to cover the cost of all excursions, incursions and sporting events your children attend throughout the year.  It does NOT cover the costs of Gala Days or Diocesan Sport.  The cost is different for every year group as the excursion costs vary for each class.  If you would like more information on the Excursion Levy, please contact the school office for further information.

School Fee Agreements

Families who wish to take advantage of the flexibility of paying their school fees over the school year, rather than paying within 30 days, must have in place a current School Fee Agreement to advise their preferred method of school fee payment, amount and frequency.  For your convenience, this Agreement  is included above.  Agreements are also accessible from the school office and website.

Please note:  If you have an existing School Fee Agreement you are required to provide an amended version as soon as possible to update your details.  In the case that you are paying by Direct Debit, you may also need to provide an amended authority which will be lodged by the school on your behalf.

• The School Fee Agreement should be returned to the school office by Friday, 1 March 2018, with any applicable payment authorities.
• Families who do not return agreements will be subject to full payment within 30 days.
• Methods of payment offered include: BPay; EFTPOS; Cash/Cheque; Credit Card; Direct Debit with the preferred method being BPay Payments – please refer to the School Fee Agreement for further information regarding each type of payment.
• Frequencies offered include: Weekly, fortnightly, monthly or intervals that suit the family budget
• To determine your payment amount, an online ‘School Fee Calculator’ is available on the school’s website.

If You Have An Existing, Or You Wish To Apply For Fee Concession

If your family requires consideration for Fee Concession due to financial hardship, it is necessary to submit an Application for Fee Concession, providing evidence of your financial situation and have an interview with the Principal.  This process will be undertaken by the school annually.  Parent/carers should be assured that these situations will be treated with the utmost confidentiality, respect and empathy. 

If you have an existing Fee Concession, we will contact you during the year to conduct an annual review.

Please do not hesitate to contact the school office if you require explanation or assistance in relation to school fee matters.
