If you accept a place with us, we are beginning a partnership to last the next six years and possibly beyond.

 

 

We understand for some families the payment of fees can be of concern, so, from the outset, we encourage you to communicate. Our aim is for each family to feel comfortable talking to us regarding any finance related matter. Your key contacts are Greg and Angela. Appointments outside normal office opening hours can be accommodated. Voicemail is available.

2025 Fees

Our fees cover all compulsory costs for the year including:

  • Levies (except for Years 9-12 Outdoor Education electives)
  • Camps
  • A portable device, currently a MacBook computer; and
  • Student accident insurance covering all school activities.

 

Please note that refunds do not apply to non-attendance of compulsory activities.

 

2025 Fee Schedule

 

Excluded from fees are optional activities such as Immersion trips and some Youth Ministry activities.

 

In the interests of equity to all families:

  • it is a requirement that tuition fees, or any formalised arrangement with tuition fees, are up to date before a student is provided with the opportunity to participate in a voluntary activity involving cost; or
  • where fee assistance has been granted, the student(s) of that family will be ineligible to participate in voluntary activities involving cost.

All accounts are paid by direct debit or credit card deduction.

 

Payment frequencies offered are:

 

Weekly:Ìý Thursday or Friday
Fortnightly: Thursday or Friday
Monthly: 14 or 28 of each month
Quarterly: 14 February, May, August and November
Annually: 31 March

 

Any other payment arrangement needs to be approved by the Business Manager and will only apply to special circumstances. The payment period is from February to November, but ongoing payments (over a full calendar year) can be set up where requested.

Camps, Sports & Excursions
Fund (CSEF)

Families or temporary foster parents holding a valid means-tested concession card may be eligible to apply for funding under the Victorian Government Camps, Sports and Excursions FundÌý(CSEF).

 

This applies to holders of a Health Care Card, Veterans Affairs Gold Card or Pensioner Concession Card: $250 per year is payable for eligible secondary students.

 

We lodge applications and, once the Victorian government releases funding, credit $250 per student to your fee account.

 

A parent/carer will only be required to submit a CSEF application form to the College in the following circumstances:

  • applying for the CSEF payment for the first time – i.e., an application form was not lodged with the school in the previous year; or
  • circumstances have changed – e.g., a change of name or CRN, or a new sibling has commenced at the school.

This subsidy is available in areas where there is no public transport, to drive an eligible student all or part of the way to school.
