ATTENDANCE DUES
Attendance Dues are a compulsory payment approved by the Minister of Education under Section 447 of the Education Act 1989 and a condition of enrolment at Carmel College. Attendance Dues are charged for all students who attend Catholic Schools in New Zealand.
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 Carmel College on behalf of the school's Proprietor, Nga Whaea Atawhai o Aotearoa Tiaki Manatu/Sisters of Mercy NZ Ministries Trust. The attendance dues collected by Carmel 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.
