School Fees
Every effort is made by the school to be welcoming and inclusive, and to ensure St Mary's is accessible to every family through the provision of a family-friendly fee policy and fee relief. School fees are reviewed on a yearly basis and set through consultation with the School Advisory Council and Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools guidelines. It is the policy of the school that no family should be excluded due to financial difficulty, therefore concessions or exemptions may be granted on an individual case basis.
Students with Additional Learning Needs
We welcome parents who wish to enrol a child with additional learning needs and do everything possible to accommodate the child’s needs. The process for enrolling students with special needs is the same as that for enrolling any student. In order for us to provide an effective transition program for students with additional needs, it is important that parents provide any relevant specialist reports to assist us.
