Fees statements are emailed monthly, with the first sent towards the end of February to allow for the roll to be settled and any last option changes confirmed.
School Fees are made up of four components – Attendance Dues, Special Character, School Contribution and Building Fund.
The compulsory Attendance Dues are collected by the school on behalf of the Proprietor, the Roman Catholic Bishop of Auckland. All Dues collected are sent to the Auckland Common Fund, the Diocese’s department responsible for collection. Dues are a compulsory payment under the terms of the Private Schools Conditional Integration Act 1975.
The 2023 Fees are as follows:
Years 9 - 13:
Full Year = $2453 or $2033 sibling (includes $916 compulsory Attendance Dues)
Years 7 & 8:
Full Year = $1985 or $1565 sibling (includes $468 compulsory Attendance Dues)
Details of all the year’s fees will appear on each statement and parents can choose to pay instalments fortnightly, monthly or quarterly each term so as to be fully paid by the end of the Term 4.

The following is a message from the Roman Catholic Bishop of Auckland's Office regarding the Special Character and Dues component of our school fees:
Special Catholic Character Contributions
The Catholic Special Character contribution is a voluntary donation of $12.50 per term ($50.00 per annum) per student.
This contribution provides the main source of funding for all services provided to Rosmini College by the Catholic Education Services Board. Special Character Contributions collected on behalf of the Proprietor are permitted under the terms of the Education and Training Act 2020. These contributions are eligible for a taxation rebate.
No contributions are made by the Government for these services. Financial Contributions collected on behalf of the Proprietor are permitted under the terms of the Education and Training Act 2020. These contributions are eligible for a taxation rebate.
The Catholic Education Services Board assists schools to provide a Catholic education for your child through the preservation and enhancement of the Catholic Special Character in our schools.
Attendance Dues
Attendance dues are approved by the Minister of Education under the terms of the Education and Training Act 2020.
Attendance Dues are used to repay loans for building works done at schools in the Auckland Diocese, property related costs including school building works, buildings insurance and costs directly associated with the administration of attendance dues.
Attendance Dues are collected by Rosmini College on behalf of the school’s Proprietor, the Roman Catholic Bishop of Auckland. The attendance dues collected by Rosmini College are forwarded to Auckland Common Fund Limited, a company established by the proprietors of Catholic integrated schools in the Diocese of Auckland responsible for the collection of attendance dues.
Attendance Dues payable for 2023 school year:
Y7 – Y8 $488 per year including GST
Y9 – Y13 $956 per year including GST
Attendance Dues can be paid in full at the beginning of the school year, per term or by regular instalment.
