Fees

Fundamental to delivering an inspirational Montessori learning environment for our students is to maintain a financially viable school. Brisbane Montessori has an all-inclusive fee model, which means that your fees cover the cost of all compulsory camps, excursions, and incursions, with the exception of any activity outside of the state of Queensland.

School Tuition

School Tuition

Applies to children in Children’s House who are prep-age or older, as well as students in Primary-Middle School. For students to be considered as prep-age in 2026, they need to have been born between July 1, 2020 and June 30, 2021.

All fees and charges are billed at least one week prior to the commencement of each term.
School fees are due and payable on the Thursday of the first week of term (unless a payment authority has been applied.)
If a payment authority has been applied, fees may be paid termly, monthly, or fortnightly via EziDebit.

Long Day Care

Long Day Care

Children in the Montessori Independent Toddler Community and children under prep-age in Children’s House are considered to be attending Long Day Care.
All Long Day Care fees are invoiced fortnightly in arrears via SmartCentral.
The preferred payment method is via direct debit (bank account or credit card).
If no direct debit authority is in place, fees are due within seven days of invoice.
BMS charges for public holidays and gazetted pupil free days. The Australian Government assists this process by paying a Child Care Subsidy for these ‘absence days’.
Parents who do not collect their child within our normal hours of operation will be charged $15 for every block of 10 minutes thereafter.
