Our commitment to our school families is to offer a high-quality Catholic Education that is accessible and affordable.

Annual School Fees 2024

Full Fee

$2100

Lower Income Fee

$1260

 

What is Included:

The tuition fee above covers all tuition, levies and charges for each child’s education.

Camps are excluded and will be charged separately.

The enrolment of a student after the start of the academic year is pro-rated.

Lower Income Fee:

To be eligible for the lower income fee, you need to qualify as a low income family. This is determined by your family’s gross income and is a value set by the State Government.

In 2024, your family’s gross income needs to be in line with the Non-Government Schools limits for the 2022/2023 financial year, for a family with one school-age child. (The limit will vary depending on how many dependent children you have.)

Proof of income is required and applicants will need to apply via the State Government’s School Card scheme.

Our finance manager can help you if you have any questions about applying for the lower income fee.

Need help with School Fees?

If you are concerned about your ability to pay schools fees, we strongly encourage you to have a discussion with us. We believe a family’s financial circumstances should not be a barrier to a student accessing a Catholic education.

Sibling Discounts

Discounts are available for families with more than one student attending our school.
