Our fees need to cover the complete running of our school – we have no funding or grants coming from the Department of Education. We describe our school as ‘Self-funded by Parents’ and have tried hard to keep these at or below a standard creche fee so that families are not having to find additional money a month if they have been in an early childcare setting prior to joining us.
We are a Social Enterprise (registered CLG) and so have no shareholders that profit at the school’s expense – we are a ‘not-for-private-profit’ company. Any and all profits made will be channeled straight back into the school to the benefit of the students.
Fees will cover everything for your student: materials, stationary, insurance, and a hot nutritious lunch cooked by an on-site chef. We will have no uniform to buy – all the children will need is some wet gear which many families usually purchase from local supermarkets such as Lidl/ Aldi! We will also have a Swop Shop for parents to pass on gear that children have grown out of.
We have a number of different pricing options available to best suit payment for your family.
- Pay monthly by direct debit (paid over 12 months) – €1000 per calendar month
- Pay termly (by the 1st of the month of Sept, Jan, April) – 3 payments of €4400, €3300 & €3300
- Pay annually (due by 31st August) – €10,500
*Sibling discount (applied to the fees of all children in the family, and paid in any of the ways above) – 10% off the monthly fee.
