School Fees and Assistance
Marist College Emerald, as an authentic Catholic school, provides a comprehensive curriculum, committed and dedicated staff, and contemporary resources and facilities to meet the needs of our students. To support the provision of outstanding educational service to the community, school fees are set at an appropriate level.
School Funding
Federal and State Government Grants and School fees fund the operations of our school. The Federal Government’s means-tested assessment of the Capacity to Contribute of the school community determines the amount of Grant funding provided. School fees align with these Government funding
parameters.
Our Simple and Transparent Approach to School Fees
A simple and transparent fee structure enables families to understand the cost of their child’s education. Rather than a tuition fee plus numerous levies and add-on charges, we present our school fees as an All-Inclusive Education fee that covers the curriculum offering of the school. The only other charge is a Building Levy, which funds the capital costs of providing contemporary and educationally engaging spaces for our students and staff. The school may offer some activities that fall outside the curriculum offerings of the school. Should your child choose to participate in these, Specific Purpose charges will apply. The Schedule of Fees (link below) provides further details.
