Finance Corner
Welcome to Term 3.
A warm welcome to Term 3. We would like to start by thanking our families for their continued support in meeting their financial obligations over the past two terms. At St Monica's College, we pride ourselves in being a leader of Catholic Education in the northern suburbs. We aim to be more than a school, but to be an Educational Enterprise, and this starts with our valued families and our loving community.
We are looking forward to seeing how we can assist you in meeting your fee commitments in Term 3.
