Voluntary Development Contribution
A voluntary development contribution is set annually. This payment is tax deductible,
Fee Remissions.
As in prior years, parents experiencing financial hardship may apply for a partial remission rebate of fees. Applications are made directly with the Schools Financial Manager Mr P Coutts - 021 6817929.
The Governing Bodfy has accordingly declared RBHS a fee paying school, which means that the school fees levied are legally enforceable. These fees, which are adjusted from time to time to cover operating costs, are collected by the Schools' Fund, which administers the moneys for the benefit of the school and in accordance with the directions of the Governing Body.
Scholar accident insurance
This cover is voluntary. There is a small excess to be paid on each claim. This accident insurance covers costs which are in excess of parents own medical aid cover limits.
Music lessons
Music tuition is given at the school in piano, recorder, cello, violin, guitar, clarinet, percussion, saxophone, trumpet, trombone, French horn and keyboard. A fee (depending on instrument learnt) is charged for these lessons which must be submitted, strictly in advance, to the school bursar. Auditions take place annually in November.
NOTE: There is a waiting list for these lessons and pupils who do not make the desired progress in music, may be replaced. Any pupil wishing to terminate music lessons is required to give a full term’s notice.
Development contribution fund
Over the years RBHS has built up an exceptional establishment of sporting and other facilities for the use and benefit of its pupils.
Maintaining and improving standards at the school is an enormous financial undertaking in a time of severely curtailed state expenditure. This development fund has been financed by school parents, the Old Boys of the school and other interested persons.
