School fee accounts are sent via email either annually or prior to the commencement of each term, and are to be paid in full by the due date on each invoice.

The Education Services for Overseas Students (ESOS) legislative framework (link below) is designed to ensure that Australia's reputation for delivering quality education services is maintained and that the interests of overseas students are protected. It sets minimum standards and provides tuition and financial assurance. Together with Australian immigration law, the ESOS framework also imposes visa related reporting requirements on both students and educational institutions.
Our school does not engage the services of education agents to promote the school overseas or in Australia. We welcome enquiries from parents directly and/or friends/relatives enquiring on their behalf.
If you are a student visa holder you must obtain health insurance from an Australian health insurance provider. You must have adequate health insurance while in Australia. This is done by obtaining Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) which provides medical and hospital insurance in Australia. You must not arrive in Australia before your health insurance starts. If you are in Australia and do not have adequate health insurance, you are in breach of your visa conditions. The government's Private Health website (http://www.privatehealth.gov.au/) compares a range of insurance products so you can make an informed choice on which health cover works for you.
