Materials and Services Charges

As we draw to a close for the year, we wish to thank our families for their support in paying their school fees and charges in a timely manner, thus ensuring that we can offer the best possible education to our students. We do understand that some families may be experiencing financial hardship or other challenges and we encourage you to please speak to our finance staff if this is the case. Open communication helps us to support you in the best possible way. 

The materials and services charge for 2026 has been set at $675 following a successful poll of our school community. The South Australian government have committed to a rebate of $200 for all students, except those on the School Card scheme, to assist families with the cost-of-living pressures. 

As such families will only need to pay $475 in 2026. For those families who intend to apply for School Card in 2026, applications can be made from 12 January 2026. For more information and to apply, please click here.

Please be aware that our financial systems are currently being migrated to a new platform, so you will receive your invoices and statements electronically next year. As usual, stationery packs will be provided to all students during care group on their first day of the2026 school year.

Should you need to contact finance staff we will be available by email and telephone up to and including Friday 19 December 2025 and a skeleton staff will return from 5 January 2026.
