Fees
School fees are inclusive of a nourishing morning snack for all children and a daily vegetarian lunch, prepared with care and intention, for all full-day programmes. Fees also cover a wide range of learning experiences that extend beyond the classroom, including time spent outdoors across our campus and participation in meaningful activities that support each child’s development.
All essential school supplies and materials are included, including those used in creative arts, handwork and practical subjects, ensuring children are fully supported in their learning without the need for additional costs.
Our fees are designed to provide families with clarity and peace of mind, reflecting the breadth and depth of the Marinela experience.
