FINANCIAL MATTERS

2021 FEES

The distribution of the 2021 College fees has been completed and we now ask that Fee Payment Schedules be returned as soon as possible.

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
