Tuition Fees 

 

To keep additional billing for families down to a minimum we have endeavoured to make this fee as all-inclusive as possible.  No additional fees are payable during the year for excursions, incursions, curriculum resources or classroom stationery and materials. A laptop levy is payable if your child is provided with a school owned laptop. Laptops will remain at School.  

Fees are due within 14 days of receiving an invoice.
