Refunds
All

The request should have the details of the initial donation/payment including
the date, amount, name of the donor/payee, receipt number and the nature of the
error.
For
errors made by the St Ann’s School or its financial institution a full refund
will be made upon notification, and all costs borne by St Ann’s School.
For
errors in amount donated, the donor has 60 days in which to notify St Ann’s
School. St Ann’s School is under no obligation to give a refund if an error
has been made on your part, but will endeavor to ensure that any genuine
errors (such as to the amount donated) are rectified. St Ann’s School,
which is a non-profit organisation, reserves the right to deduct any bank or
transaction charges for any refund processed onto the donor.

Confirmation of Enrolment Fee
A non-refundable fee of $100.00 per student will be charged when the enrolment of the student is confirmed. Upon commencement, $50.00 of the fee will be credited to the first Statement of Fees & Levies issued.
Confirmation of Enrolment Fees can be paid directly at the school office.
Late Fees
In fairness to families who pay their school fees regularly and on time, our school will follow up all overdue school fee accounts.
A reminder statement/notice/letter will be issued within 7 days to any family who has not settled their school fee account by the due date where a payment plan or other arrangements are not in place.
If payment or a suitable response is not received within 7 days of the reminder statement, contact with the parent will be made via telephone, mail or email.
If after two weeks from this second reminder satisfactory arrangements have not been reached, the account may be sent to the school's Debt Collection agency. In serious cases, where there is clear capacity to pay outstanding fees, legal options may be pursued by the college.
Legal costs will be at the family's expense.
All Agreed Payment Plans will be arranged to include a regular schedule that will clear the school fee account by the last day of the school year. Any extensions to an Agreed Payment Plan must be negotiated with the Principal or Finance Officer.
Concession Information
A fee concession is available for eligible families. This eligibility is available on the basis of a just and equitable formula reflecting financial hardship and is consistent with Brisbane Catholic Education guidelines.
An Application or Concession on Fees form can be obtained by contacting the Principal or Finance Officer. The granting of a fee concession is conditional on the family agreeing to the direct debit method (including Centrepay) of school fee payment. Fee concessions are reviewed annually.
Under the conditions of an application for concession, families receiving concession will not be eligible to apply for or attend non-compulsory extra-curricular trips that are offered by the college.
