Sibling Discount

A reduction of 5% is given on Tuition Fees for the second child, 25% for the third child and 50% for the fourth and subsequent children who are attending the School at the same time.

Late Fees and Overdue Accounts

Fees not paid by the payment due date noted on each statement will incur a late fee of $175 for every 30 days the account remains in arrears. The School appreciates families can, at times, experience financial challenges and it is the School’s preference to partner with our families to work through this together. In any instance where School Fees are overdue and a suitable arrangement cannot be agreed upon with Woodleigh School, then the School may withdraw or revoke a student’s enrolment and take legal action to recover outstanding fees.

Students commencing during term

Students commencing during term will be charged on a pro-rata basis for tuition only. The Consolidated Charge and Building Levy will be charged at the full term rate.

Students at Woodleigh School will be expected to purchase some of their basic textbooks and all of their stationery requirements. A booklist from the School’s official book supplier is published at the end of each school year. From 2023, subject levies are included within the Consolidated Levy and not included on the book lists. For some subjects that require additional materials or costs these will be charged to the fee account separately.
