COVID-19 Information

The current COVID-19 crisis has presented unprecedented challenges and resulted in considerable uncertainty and financial stress for many in our Terrace Family.

Families come together in times of need and the Terrace Family is no different.

The College has provided families with Term 2 fee information.  We will continue to provide high quality education for our students as we move forward together.  Your fee contribution ensures that we can continue to provide a valued Catholic education in the Edmund Rice Tradition, and if you have not been financially impacted by the COVID crisis we would ask you to maintain your fee payments accordingly.

We are acutely aware of the hardships being experienced right across the community and we will do all that we can to facilitate the ongoing education of all students.  Parents and caregivers should be assured that Terrace will work with all our families to navigate through these difficult times.  We will provide the necessary financial support required and ensure that your son continues to receive a quality holistic Terrace education.

Should you require support please complete the attached Statement of Affairs – COVID-19 Fee Relief form  and return to the College’s Dean of Business Operations, Mr Adam Read via email (AdamRead@terrace.qld.edu.au).  Mr Read will contact you directly to further discuss your situation and develop a support plan moving forward. Members of the Finance Team will make further contact with families during Term 2 to monitor the level of ongoing financial support required.

We thank you for your understanding and cooperation.  There is much for us still to get through as a community and we are confident that we will work together to achieve the very best for our students.
