Finance 2025

All families should have received their 2025 Materials & Services charges information pack by mail. School fees are set at $655 for 2025, however there is a Government rebate of $200 that will offset the cost of the fees and reduce the amount owing to $455.
Please check your statement that was included in your pack as there may also be prior year credits to take into account to ensure you are not overpaying. Materials and Services charges are due by the end of term 1, Friday 11 April 2025.
We encourage you to use the Qkr! application for payment of school expenses. Please note that canteen orders can be made using Qkr! as well - click here to access Qkr! instructions.
Alternatively, payment plans are available to spread the repayments over an agreed period of time - click here to access the APHS Instalment Application
