Schedule of Fees

St Paul’s Catholic College receives funding from both state and federal governments. School fees help to supplement this funding, enabling us to provide a genuine, professional Catholic education with care and compassion. 

We strive to keep fees as low as possible and offer flexible payment options for families who need assistance. No student will be denied enrolment due to an inability to pay. We are committed to supporting families seeking Catholic education despite financial challenges. 

Education Fees 

St Paul’s Catholic College has two standard fees. The Education Fee applies to each student and varies between schools and possibly between grade levels. This all-inclusive fee covers the general resources required for education throughout the school year and supports the maintenance, refurbishment, and development of school facilities to ensure modern learning environments. This fee is comprehensive and cannot be itemized. 

The Education Fee is charged per child, with sibling discounts applicable only to children enrolled in the CSBB Systemic network of schools.

Supplementary Fees 

In addition to the Education Fee, there may be Supplementary Fees for specific activities or courses not covered by the standard fee. These are typically related to activities that enhance the educational experience, such as overnight camps or retreats, or specific costs associated with particular subjects. 

Billing and Payment Arrangements 

Fees are billed annually, with standard payment terms being 10 monthly instalments from February to November. Families experiencing financial hardship may contact our Fee Liaison Team to arrange an alternative payment plan. Payments can be made via BPAY, EFTPOS, Credit Card (VISA and Mastercard) or Cheque, with BPAY being the preferred method. 

Fee Assistance
