Disbursement deposit

The College operates a disbursement deposit account for pupils to cover items of incidental expenditure during the term. This is charged at the entry of each new pupil to the College and refunded when the pupil leaves the College. Initial Deposits for new entrants are currently: Boarders $150.00   Day Boys  $75.00

Additional boarding charges 

Except for incidentals there are no additional boarding charges. Boarders are provided with a comprehensive medical examination and regular medical attention throughout the year. Parents of new entrants may be required to pay a refundable deposit of $400 in advance, in confirmation of acceptance of the vacancy.  This is credited to the first term's account.

Extras

The College offers tuition in music, woodwork, technical drawing, art, cooking and other curricular activities and clubs.  In most instances pupils will be charged for the cost of materials. School camps are partly subsidized from Activity Fees. A charge for sports to cover equipment, affiliation fees and travel is charged to each pupil.

Attendance dues

The attendance due is charged each term and in terms of the Integration Agreement completed in 1989, is used to cover such items as mortgage repayments and interest, rates, insurance and school building development required to maintain the College at state code funding levels.

Activity fee donation

The activity fee donation is charged at the rate of $50 per term. This is charged to cover the costs of items not covered by our funding. This donation is paid to the Board of Trustees.

Proprietor's levy donation

This optional levy will be charged each term.  This levy was established to provide a fund for future capital development and maintenance of assets which are not otherwise subsidized by the Ministry of Education. The fund will provide for the maintenance of the Chapel; and other non-integrated buildings, together with supporting items and activities which comprise the 'special character' of John McGlashan College.  Some funds have been used to fund part of the replacement of the main College building, student centre development and donations to assist the Board of Trustees in their operations. This donation is paid to the Board of Proprietors.

Parents and friends association donation

This optional donation is charged each term and forwarded to the Parents and Friends Association. This is augmented by proceeds from the annual fete, and in turn returned to the College for current projects.

Optional Levies and Donations have no GST payable and parents may include these payments as a taxation rebate.
