2021 Materials and Services Charges (school fees)

School fees are set annually by the Woodville High School Governing Council and for 2021 the compulsory Materials and Services Charge is $490.00.

Some courses and extra-curricular activities, including VET, sports, excursions, camps and instrument hire, attract additional fees during the year.

Full payment of the Materials & Services Charges is due by 31 May 2021, unless

• a School Card Application has been completed; or
• a Student Fees Instalment Payments Agreement has been completed.

Payment options

1. Payment of full fees by 31 May 2021
   Payment can be made by cash, cheque or card at the school finance office, or you can phone the school and pay by card. You can also make payments online with a Visa card, MasterCard, or Debit card via BPoint through the school website at www.woodvillehs. sa.edu.au . Use the “Pay Invoice” link on the home page and you will be able to use your card to make your payment securely online. The school has recently added Qkr! so now you can also pay by using the Qkr! app (see the Qkr! How to instructions in this newsletter).
2. Apply for the School Card Grant
   The School Card Grant is an income- tested scheme to provide assistance to low to average income families for payment of school fees. To qualify for School Card, your family’s gross income must be below a certain limit. This limit depends on how many dependent children you have. The table below lists the income limits for applications lodged in 2021 – based on the family’s gross income in the 2019/2020 financial year.

   School card eligibility does not automatically roll over year on year. Families seeking assistance are required to apply each school year. All application forms along with detailed information describing the application process (including how to apply online) can be accessed at sa.gov.au/topics/education-and-learning/financial- help-scholarships-and-grants/school-card-scheme. Please complete the form appropriate to your situation. If you need help completing the form, or choosing which form is right for your circumstances, contact the school or call the School Card section on 1800 672 758. Application forms are also available from the school finance office.
3. Payment of fees by instalments
   To pay fees by instalments parents are requested to complete the Student Fees Instalment Payments Agreement. This agreement is required for all student fees that will not be fully paid by 31 May 2021. All instalment payments should be completed by 1 October 2021.

If you choose to have instalments automatically deducted from a credit card or bank account you must complete the Direct Debit Request form and return the completed form to the school.

Please allow ten days from the date of returning your forms to the start of your first payment. This allows the agreement to be processed by our office and banking institution.
