Fees for brothers

When brothers are attending the College at the same time, the eldest is charged full fees with a: 10% reduction for the second brother; 15% reduction for the third brother; 25% reduction for the fourth and subsequent brothers (except when provision for a bursary or scholarship applies).

Terms and Conditions

Registration and Enrolment Fees

When a boy is registered for possible future enrolment, a Registration Fee of $300 (incl. GST) is payable. This amount is not refundable.

A non-refundable Enrolment Fee of $5000 is payable before a boy’s enrolment can be confirmed. Boarding students are also required to pay a refundable deposit of $1000.

 

Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Educational expenses including tuition are generally exempt from GST. The College reserves the right to charge GST for goods and services provided where exemptions do not apply.

 

TVET and NSW School of Languages

Annual tuition fees will cover up to $1000 of the net cost to the College for TVET and NSW School of Languages courses when the course is taken as part of a student’s normal curriculum. TVET courses are currently supported by funding from the AIS. This funding is not guaranteed, but, if received, will be applied to reduce the net cost of TVET courses.

 

K–6 Excursions and Amenities Levy

In addition to the tuition fees, an excursion and amenities levy for Years K–6 is charged to cover excursions and activities. The levy does not cover school camps and overnight excursions which will be charged separately, if applicable. This charge varies depending on the activities conducted by the Preparatory School. It will be included in the first invoice of the school year.

 

Rebate for Absence

In appropriate circumstances, the College may agree to credit up to 50% of tuition fees where a boy is absent for four weeks or more at a time because of illness or injury. Any request for such a credit should be directed to the Chief Financial Officer and should be accompanied by a medical certificate. Final determination of any such request will be at the discretion of the Headmaster.

 

Withdrawal from School or from Boarding

Subject to the next clause, a full term’s notice must be given in writing to the Head of Campus before any student is withdrawn or before his status is changed from boarder to day student. The notice must be given before the first day of the student’s last full term. If this notice is not given, a terms’ fees will be charged and, if the student is a boarder, a quarter year’s boarding fee will be charged. This amount is a genuine pre-estimate by the College of the loss that it would suffer if the required notice is not provided.

Two terms’ notice must be given in writing to the Head of Campus before any current Year 6 student is withdrawn after the beginning of Term 2. The notice must be given before the first day of the student’s second last full term. If this notice is not given, two terms’ fees will be charged. This amount is a genuine pre-estimate by the College of the loss that it would suffer if the required notice is not provided.

 

Parents and Friends’ Association (P&F)

An annual levy per family (as determined by the P&F) will be billed in April. The 2023 levy is $70.

 

Fees in Advance Policy

The College provides families with the ability to pay their fees in advance.
