Payment Terms
Accounts are sent to parents/fee payers during the school holidays and are to be paid by the first day of each term.

The Accountant may approve payment by instalment through the term and payment in such cases will be by automatic payment authority. Interest at 2% per month will be charged on all overdue accounts, including those paid by instalment. The automatic payment must be sufficient to clear the account by the last day of each term.

Disbursements
Expenses incurred by the Board specifically on behalf of students, including cost allocations for consumable items used in some classes, will be recovered from parents on a monthly basis. To assist the financing of disbursement charges, the Board requires a $200.00 deposit to be paid on confirmation of enrolment. This deposit will be credited to the parent's account when a student leaves the school. Disbursement accounts are due for payment by the 20th of each month.

Tax Rebate
You are reminded that under Section KC 5 of the Income Tax Act 1994, you are entitled to claim a tax rebate for donations made to the school.

Fee Protection Levy
The Trinity Schools' Trust Board operates a compulsory Fees Protection Scheme, which is funded by a levy of 1.23% applied to the GST exclusive tuition donation, attendance dues and boarding fees. Terms and conditions of the scheme will be forwarded with the first fee invoice for the year.
