Daylesford Dharma School

Schedule of Fees 2010

The Daylesford Dharma School offers an educational philosophy derived from the methods and wisdom of Buddhist teachings. It teaches wisdom and compassion as a pathway to develop human potential. Students and families of any religious belief or secular background are welcome to join the Daylesford Dharma School community. Our school community supports the principle of non-harm and the development of wisdom and compassion. These principles unite us as a school community with a commonly shared view of recognising the interdependent nature of all life.

The Daylesford Dharma School makes every effort to keep fee levels as accessible as possible. As such we offer a standard fee rate, a concession rate and a discount for siblings. We acknowledge that from time to time families may undergo financial hardship and so to support inclusiveness we encourage families to negotiate fee arrangements with the school administrator. Our levied fees are dependent on school running costs to be met and the total of grants received and will need to be annually reassessed. We are a not-for-profit education provider who reinvests any budget surplus back into the school programmes and facilities.

Enrolment Application Fee: $50 payable with the enrolment application. This is a non-refundable administration fee.

Fee Payments: Fees will be invoiced a term in advance and are payable by the first day of term.

Sibling Concessions: A sibling discount of 10% applies for each subsequent sibling enrolled at the school.

Fee Concession: To be eligible for the concession rate, the family must be an eligible recipient for a Centrelink health care card.

Materials Levy: There is a Materials Levy of $20 per term in addition to the school fees.

School Uniform: The school uniform is to be purchased from the school at minimal cost. More details will be provided upon enrolment.

Other Items From time to time there may need to be small charges made for pre-arranged excursions and special events visiting the school. A sports uniform and a school sun hat may be billed when supplied to the student.
