FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMME

The Trafalgar Castle School Financial Aid programme has been developed to assist families who believe in the education experience which is provided by the school, but who are unable to meet the full financial commitment. Need and merit awards may be available to students who contribute in a significant way to life at Trafalgar Castle but whose financial resources limit the possibility of their attending. These awards vary in size and are based on the Financial Aid Committee's evaluation of financial need. Need and merit awards are re-evaluated annually.

If you would like the committee to consider your daughter's participation in this programme, please contact the Admissions Office for an application. All applications must be received in the Admissions Office no later than March 1, 2008. Please note that only those students whose application for re-enrolment and re-enrolment fee has been received will be considered for assistance. All requests for financial assistance are kept strictly confidential.

PRIVATE LESSONS

Piano and Voice lessons are available upon request of the student or parents/guardians. Payment is made directly to the service provider by the student or parents/guardians.
