The tuition fee above covers all tuition, levies and charges for each child’s education.

Lower Income Fee:

To be eligible for the lower income fee, you need to qualify as a low income family. This is determined by your family’s gross income and is a $ value set by the State Government.

In 2023, your family’s gross income needs to be below approximately $66,412 for a family with one school-age child. (The limit will vary depending on how many dependent children you have.)

Proof of income is required.  The School Card Application Form A (Income Audit) can be accessed here  Families are to apply via the School.  Forms for Change of Circumstances/Self-Employed are available from the School's finance manager. Further information can be found at the following link State Government’s School Card scheme.

Our finance manager can help you if you have any questions about applying for the lower income fee.
