PAYMENTS

All fees are payable fortnightly by direct debit only. Fees are payable two weeks in advance. Failure to keep fees up to date may result in a child’s enrolment being forfeited and the debt passed on to a debt collection agency, for which the parent will be responsible for any associated costs incurred. 

FAMILY DISCOUNT

A discount is available if you have another child attending as a student at Saint Kentigern, including the Preschool. You will be entitled to a 5% discount on the fees for each child. A 10% discount will apply to the fees for the Preschool child if you have three or more children attending as students at Saint Kentigern. 

HOLIDAY DISCOUNT

There is a 50% discount available for a maximum of two weeks (Pro-rata for days attended) that can be used for sickness or holiday. This does not accrue to the following calendar year if it is not used. 

NOTICE OF WITHDRAWAL

A minimum of four calendar weeks notice must be given in writing to the Principal to withdraw a student from the Preschool. 

CONTINUING EDUCATION

Children who are enrolled at Saint Kentigern for their Preschool education are encouraged to continue their education at Saint Kentigern Boys’ School or Saint Kentigern Girls’ School.
