Schedule of Fees

Fee Information - 2010

Samuel Marsden Collegiate School is a charitable trust, and we broadly budget to run the School on a breakeven basis.
The Board regularly reviews the fees and sets them at the lowest possible level to ensure increasing costs do not erode the high standards of tuition and facilities for which Marsden has become known.

*Preschool tuition fee is based on the assumption that parents have opted to take up the Government 20 hours Free ECE Subsidy.

Application and Acceptance Fees (non-refundable)

There is a $100 fee payable on application. If your application is successful and we offer your daughter/son a place, there is a $450 acceptance fee payable on enrolment. If you would like more information, email our Enrolments Officer and we will send you an information pack, including requirements for formal application. This is not suitable for emailing.

Building Replacement Fund

This ensures the School buildings, facilities and amenities are maintained, up-dated and where necessary, expanded. A special levy of $250 (plus GST) has been retained in respect of the proposed Sports Education Centre.  This will be capped at a maximum of $500 (plus GST) per family having more than 2 students at Marsden.

Fees Protection Scheme

In the event of the death of either parent, a pupil may continue her/his education at Marsden up to and including the fifth secondary year. Preschool exempt.

Disbursement Deposit

$100 is payable with the first invoice to cover miscellaneous charges. This is a deposit and the balance is refunded when the pupil leaves Marsden.
