At St Bernard’s, we endeavour to make a quality Catholic education accessible to children whose families desire such an education for them and who meet our enrolment criteria.
Our fees and levies are reviewed annually and represent the actual costs associated with providing high quality teaching staff, excellent classroom and sports facilities, up-to-date educational technology and important extra-curricular school experiences.
For Full Fee Paying Students (FFPOS) please contact St Bernard's school finance via email.
With the assistance of Brisbane Catholic Education, we have restructured our fee payments for the 2024 school year. This has seen a reduction in the number of different levies charged, the inclusion of book packs, basic class photo pack for each child and excursions in the school fees, the elimination of subscription levies and a clear IT Levy from Prep-Year 6, enabling the purchase of iPads for Prep – Year 2 and Computers for Year 3-6.
