School Fees
School fees are calculated on a sliding scale, according to the number of children per family, a base fee is set for a one child family. A discounted fee applies for each subsequent child in the family. 2022 Fees
Capital Fee
A capital levy is charged to each school family in order to ensure that we can meet our capital commitments and purchase capital equipment as required. In addition to this levy our Parish will contribute 20 percent of its income to the Parish School Building Fund. This will be an additional source of support for our capital works.
Curriculum Fee
Each family is billed a Curriculum Levy of $880 per student. The levy provides students with resources, excursion and sporting opportunities, as well as contemporary technology to enable rich learning experiences. All curriculum cost, books and stationery, technology, excursion, sport and sacraments will be included in the one curriculum levy per child. Camps will be the only additional cost which families will incur.

Healthcare Card Holders
There are benefits if you are a healthcare card holder, in the form of subsidies that will help reduce your fees. Please contact the office for a confidential discussion.
Camps, Sports & Excursions Fund (CSEF)
The CSEF will ensure that no student will miss out on the opportunity to join their classmates for important, educational and fun activities. CSEF will be provided by the Victorian Government to assist eligible families to cover the costs of school trips, camps and sporting activities.
If you hold a valid means-tested concession card or are a temporary foster parent, you may be eligible for CSEF. The allowance will be paid to the school to use towards expenses relating to camps, excursions or sporting activities for the benefit of your child. The annual CSEF amount per primary student is $125.
