2021 School FeesDOMESTIC STUDENTS YEARS K TO 12
Comprehensive fee standard inclusions
Wherever possible, we endeavour to present our fees in a manner
that allows a comprehensive view of the total outlay required for
your daughter’s schooling during the year. Many parents find this
approach assists greatly with their family budgeting and there are
no hidden extras added to term accounts during the year.
In addition to the teaching program, the following information
provides a ‘checklist’ of the educational services provided. The
services may be varied by the School as circumstances change and
to best suit students’ needs.
There will be some items that arise as a ‘once off’ activity or
service, which may be charged to your fee account or separately,
depending on the type of service or activity. These would be
notified to you well in advance and are usually in the Elective
category.
Each year the fee amount is determined with reference to the CPI
and anticipated school operating costs.
