St Joseph Catholic School

Fees and Discounts

Our commitment to affordable fees enables us to deliver a high-quality education while still being accessible to our wider community.

 

If you are concerned about school fees, we strongly encourage you to come in and have a discussion with us. It is the policy of the school that no child will be denied a Catholic Education because of a family’s genuine inability to pay full fees. From 2020, Catholic Education became more affordable for Primary Schools across South Australia

 


Plans for the future will ensure no child goes without the possibility of accessing a Catholic Education

Catholic Education is delivering a higher grade of support to it's community by delivering substanital fee reductions across all Primary Schools in South Australia

The Catholic Education of South Australia understands that the events of 2020 have flowed on for many years as families and communities rebuild and get back on their feet. This is why the Catholic Education of South Australia and all Catholic Primary Schools across the state are delivering to 46,000 students with more affordable fees and a greater degree of support to their respective communities. 

St Joseph's will offer $2000 school fees across all year levels. This is a flat fee with no additional family fees, building fund or composite fees. 

Families who enrol more than one student at St. Joseph's will also receive further financial fee reductions based on the number of extra children enrolled.

There will be additional financial support for those with School Cards who will receive a flat fee of $1200 which is a 40% reduction off the 2024 school fees.

Tuition and Composite Fees are the primary discretionary source of income for the School, and they are determined annually by the School Board, in consultation with the Finance Committee.
