ATTENDANCE DUES
All Catholic Schools charge Attendance Dues which are a legally binding charge on all parents and caregivers who have enrolled their children at a Catholic school.  This is payable, unless in special circumstances the charge has been waived by the Proprietor of the school for specific issues associated with a family.

In the Christchurch Diocese the Attendance Due charge is $33.75 per term for each child.  The Parish Office sends out these accounts at the beginning of each term.  These should be paid to the Parish Office.

Attendance Dues are authorised under the Private Schools Conditional Integrated Act and are used to pay for costs associated with the land and buildings for the Catholic Primary Schools in the Diocese.

The Catholic Education office requests parents and caregivers to pay a contribution for religious education costs.  This contribution,  which is a donation,  is set at $5.00 per child per term.  This money is used to assist the Catholic Education Office in their advisory work for Catholic Primary schools throughout the  Diocese of Christchurch and this is sent out with the Attendance Due account. This is a tax deductible donation.

Where a parent has four or more children at a Catholic Primary School their attendance dues invoice will be for three children only, i.e. the fourth child, and any further children, will not be charged for attendance dues.

 

Attendance Dues:
$33.75 per child per term
Religious Education Costs:
$5.00 per child
Total:
$38.75 per child per term

This is used by the Board of Trustees to supplement the cost of activities not covered by the Operations Grant provided by the Ministry of Education. These items include subsidising Technology ( ACTC Year 7 and 8) visiting performers and theatre groups, swimming, Newspaper in Education, Religious Education resources etc. The Parent contribution will depend on the class the child is in and the activities they are involved in.

Accounts for Activity Fees for the full year,  are sent out at the beginning of Term 1.  If parents would like their children to take part in extra activities but have difficulty paying please see the Principal in the strictest confidence.
Fundraising is often undertaken to fund extra activities, particularly school camps.
