School Fees

Our commitment to our school families is to offer a high quality Catholic education that is accessible and affordable.

Annual School Fees 2024

What is Included:

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

Extra-curricular activities, excursions, camps, and uniforms are excluded and will be charged separately.
 

Lower Income Fee:

Eligibility for low-income fees is assessed via the School Card System and this is an application/assessment facilitated by the South Australian Government. As a guide, the 2024 School Card eligibility joint family income limit ranges between $70,994 - $77,798 (depending on the number of children). 2025 income limits are released at the start of 2025.

Proof of income is required and applicants will need to apply via the State Government’s School Card scheme. Application forms can be completed online via the School Card scheme website. School Card Form A and Form B are the most commonly used forms. Printed application forms are available from our front office.  

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

Early Payment Discount

Pay yearly tuition fees early to receive a discount

All Parents/caregivers who pay the entire year’s fees in full by 31 March 2024 will receive a 5% discount off the net Tuition Fee (tuition less sibling discount).

This discount only applies to full fee paying accounts.

Withdrawal of a Student

Student(s) leaving at the end or during a school year:

Parents/caregivers whose child/ren leave Christ the King School during a school term or at the end of the school year must provide a minimum of one term’s notice in writing to the Principal or his/her nominee prior to a student leaving. This is applicable to both current and future students where enrolment acceptance has been confirmed.

Failure to provide a terms notice will result in fees being charged for the following term. Where the withdrawal occurs at the end of the year notice must be made in Term 3. Failure to provide notice in Term 3 will result in fees being charged for the first term of the following year. This is in recognition of the fact that the school is committed to maintaining the employment of teachers on the basis of known enrolments from one term to the next.

We ensure school fees are at a level that maintains quality education for the children whilst having consideration for the financial capacity of the community we serve.
