2024 School Resource Fees and Non-Curriculum Activities

The 2024 Student Resource Fees Part A  and the Elective Subject Fees Part B (based on subjects on student’s timetables) have been issued to families.  Settlement of these accounts would be appreciated at your earliest convenience.

2024 Resource Scheme information for each year level is available by clicking on the following link :

The school operates the SRS to benefit all students.  It is not viable for the school to provide this service if fees are outstanding.  Students may be refused entry into the scheme if fees are outstanding from the previous year/s. Parents/Guardians who have agreed to participate in the SRS have agreed and there is an obligation to pay these fees in exchange for the use of school resources.

Parents experiencing financial hardship who are currently participating or wish to participate in the SRS should contact the school to discuss available options in confidence.

As advised previously on our website, in our school newsletter, and in correspondence to families, students may not be invited to participate in any non-curriculum activities including the senior formal, end-of-year activities, or the purchase of the senior jersey, if they have outstanding school fees.  We refer to clause 32 (Debt Management) of the Student Resource Scheme Participation Agreement form, which indicates that where participation fees are overdue, the Principal has the discretion to exclude a student from an optional school activity.

Students leaving this school or transferring to another school, will be entitled to a pro-rata refund of SRS fees paid to the school and the TRA. The pro-rata allowance is based on a 40-week school year (excluding costs for ID Card).

Happy Chinese New Year!
