Fees

Convent High School is an Assisted School. This means that the school has to find its funds for maintenance, equipment, furniture and for paying maintenance and secretarial staff. The comprehensive contribution asked of parents/guardians remains minimal. Parents/Guardians should make education a priority by ensuring that contributions are paid on time.

All fees at CHS are per item, per event or annual fees; however, CHS offers payment plans in which some fees are divided into three installments.  In the case where fees are paid in parts, the due date for the final part is April 30, except for the Form 5 students; the final part must be paid by April 14.
