The Catholic Church's preferential option for the poor obligates Catholic schools to ensure that no baptised student is denied a Catholic education because of an inability to pay.

Our Catholic schools receive funding from both the federal and state governments, as well as income from school fees and other fundraising activities.

The setting of fee levels and other compulsory charges in Catholic primary and secondary schools is the responsibility of the individual school, taking into account the allocation of government funds. Each school sets its own fee structure and, if any, discounts are offered for multiple children attending from the one family.

Information on fees, levies and charges is available by contacting the school. Some schools provide this information on the school website.

Most MACS’ schools offer a number of methods for paying fees.

If you have difficulty in meeting the required fee payment, you are encouraged to discuss this with the principal of the school.
