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.
