Fees & Charges
The Voluntary Contributions and Charges schedule for 2024 is attached below:
Voluntary Contributions
These amounts are paid to the school to support the education program of the school.
The total amount of Voluntary School Contributions parents and carers are being asked to pay is $50.00 per student.
While Contributions are voluntary, the quality of our teaching and learning program will be maximised when each family makes a contribution. Contributions supplement funding gained from other sources and will be used to support Mathletics, Reading Eggs and Soundwaves programs, as well as purchasing resources for other learning areas.
Charges
Charges are the cost of extra optional activities which are a part of any education programme and which contributions do not cover. This amount can vary from year to year and from class to class. The amounts indicated represent the maximum charged for scheduled activities in 2023. All the items are optional and if no payment is received, an educational activity with a similar outcome will be provided to that student. The estimated costs are at an upper limit and will not exceed this amount. These costs will only occur if the activity is actually undertaken. If you have any difficulty with paying any of the contributions or charges for your child, you can discuss a payment plan with the Manager Corporate Services.
