* The donations requested include:
Tuition Donations . these allow the Board of Trustees to operate the school in accordance with the goals and objectives of the School. It is essential for the provision of wider educational, recreational and cultural opportunities and to provide the class sizes that parents seek to be a feature of the School, which Government funding does not provide for.
Tuition Facilities Donations . these provide funding for ongoing facility improvements and the School's special character.
A Multi-pupil discount is offered (if school payments are paid by requested due date), for parents with more than one student in the Trinity Schools system
2 pupils - 5%
3 pupils - 10%
4 pupils - 15%
If payments are not received by the due date these discounts will be reversed on the next invoice.
Accounts are sent to parents / fee payers prior to the commencement of each term.
OTHER PAYMENTS
Services & Activity Donation
A services and activity payment ($36.00 per term) is requested to cover the transport for cultural, sporting and recreational trips within the Wairarapa, Chapel Resources and Calendars / School Lists.
School Lunches
School lunches are available to all day girls and for those who participate in the School lunch programme payment is required at the beginning of each term. The lunches cost $5.80 (including GST per day). There is an expectation that day girls will partake in the School lunch programme.
Disbursements
Expenses incurred specifically on behalf of students, including cost allocations for consumable items (take home components) used in some classes, will be recovered from parents on a monthly basis.
Fee Protection Scheme
The Trinity Schools Trust Board operates a Fees Protection Scheme that parents can take advantage of. This is funded by a levy of 1.23% applied to the Tuition Donation, Attendance Dues and Boarding Fees. Terms and conditions of the scheme will be forwarded to those who sign up with the first invoice of the year.
Disbursements are invoiced on a monthly basis and are due for payment by the 20th of the following month. Services and activity donations, lunches and fee protection insurance are invoiced at the beginning of each term.
ONE OFF PAYMENTS
Disbursement deposit
The disbursements are invoiced to parents periodically during the year. To assist the financing of these a deposit of $200 is requested by the Board (prior to the student commencing at the school). This is refunded to parents when the student leaves the school (after all disbursements have been paid).
Alternatively parents may wish to forward this to the St Matthew's Old Girls Association as a life membership for their daughter.
CLASSIFICATION OF PAYMENTS
A number of the payments detailed in this schedule are classified as donations and as such a tax refund can be claimed from the IRD.
Although these payments are classified as donations and as such are not compulsory, they are essential for the School to meet all of the requirements under its Integration Agreement, the strategic goals of the School and to continue to provide an education with a Special Character.
