School Fee Information

FEE INFORMATION – 2024 

The Trinity College School Advisory Council is ever conscious of our families’ financial conditions and continues to monitor costs involved in education. 

To ensure our students have the best possible experience at Trinity, the College is faced with balancing income from Commonwealth and State Government grants and receipts from the payment of fees with expenditure consisting of salaries, materials and capital works.

The fees for 2024 are listed below.

Please note, the first fee statement for the year will be mailed to all fee payers. All subsequent term fee statements will be emailed to fee payers who have an email address registered with the College.

Family Discount (Applicable to School Fees only)

• 7.5% for two children                 
• 15% for three children               
• 30% for four or more children

We also strongly encourage fee payers to set up a direct debit (fortnightly or monthly) to assist with payment of school fees. Please contact the College for more information or to collect a Direct Debit Request Form.

CAMPS, SPORTS AND EXCURSIONS FUND

 The Victorian Government provides a Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund (CSEF) payment of $225 for each eligible student to assist in the participation of school trips and sporting activities.

CSEF payments will be made directly to schools and will be credited to fee payer accounts.

To be eligible for the funding, a parent or legal guardian must be the holder of one of the following: Veterans Affairs Gold Card; Centrelink Health Care Card (HCC); Pensioner Concession Card (PCC) holder, or Temporary Foster Parents. If you are eligible to claim CSEF and have not returned your application, the final day for schools to accept CSEF applications is Friday 28 June, 2024. 

Application forms can be obtained from College Reception or downloaded from CSEF Application Form on the Victorian Department of Education website. Please note if you have previously claimed the CSEF payment and you still retain your eligibility then you will not be required to complete another Form this year. A new Form will only need to be completed for any students not enrolled in prior years.

CONVEYANCE ALLOWANCE

 A Conveyance Allowance may be available to assist parents with costs incurred in transporting children to school. These include parents who have children on the Trinity College Apollo Bay Bus, drive their children more than 4.8kms to a school bus (conditions apply), or have children travelling on the Warrion Workers Bus. The form is to be completed by family and the claim is made by Trinity College on your behalf. To check criteria and eligibility, please visit Conveyance Allowance at www.education.vic.gov.au or contact the College on 5233 9200.
