Voluntary Parent Contribution
Training costs 2024-2025
The voluntary parental contribution is made up as follows:
Activities, class outings, school celebrations, contribution from the parents’ council and excursions – €80.
In addition to the voluntary parental contribution mentioned above, we also ask for a voluntary contribution for a number of subject-specific extra activities/educational programmes in which pupils participate.
We apply the following amounts here:
- Physical Education as an examination subject (costs for extra activities and participation workshops outside the curriculum) – € 35.
- Drawing (additional materials to be purchased by pupils) – €25
Bilingual education: costs include participation in Cambridge, exams and extra tto activities:
- Year 1 – € 60,- (We invoice € 140,- including the contribution of € 80,-)
- Year 2 and 3 – € 135 (We charge € 215 including the € 80 contribution)
- Year 4, 5 and 6 – €80 (We invoice €160 including the €80 contribution).
In the autumn, parent(s)/carer(s) are sent an invoice which includes the voluntary parental contribution. Paying this voluntary parental contribution is obviously not compulsory but if parent(s)/carer(s) wish to pay this contribution, it is greatly appreciated. It enables us to make our education more attractive and challenging. Failure to pay this contribution will not lead to pupils being excluded from participating in activities.
If desired, there is the possibility to opt for an instalment payment. For more information on this, please contact the financial administration(fz@silfo.nl).
For participation in the various exchanges and trips we organise, we will always inform you in good time of the costs involved. You will then receive a separate invoice for this. This contribution is also voluntary. For exchanges and trips that we organise, we apply the condition that there must be a sufficient number of paying participants so that the financial risks are limited to an acceptable level.
