School Fee Policy Application Fee: $1,200 This is a non-refundable, non-transferable administration fee which covers the cost of admissions. The collection of this fee does not constitute any assurance that a school place or an interview will be offered. Security Deposit: A deposit of ONE MONTH SCHOOL FEE is payable upon enrollment. The deposit shall be refunded net of any outstanding balance owed to the school, provided a written Student Withdrawal Notice is submitted to the school Admissions Office at least two calendar months in advance. In case of insufficient notice (i.e. less than two calendar months notice), your deposit shall be retained and will not be refunded. If your child will be leaving school at the end of the school year, a withdrawal notice must be received by 15 June. If a student is not returning to school in the following year and his/her parent has not informed the Kindergarten of the withdrawal on or before 15 June , the parent is liable to the tuition fees for September even if the student does not return to school.
