College slashes fees

A LOCAL school is making private education more affordable by reducing the annual student fees for new and existing students.
A Peregian Beach College spokesperson said the fee reduction was achieved by principal Chris Shirley who capitalised on competitive building and loan markets and expanded the school’s facilities to accommodate more students.
Annual fees have been reduced by up to $1800, and parents can now expect to pay between $4500 to $6000 a year for private education. This is significantly less than most private schools in the region.
Situated on 21 acres of rural land and now boasting a new science building, sports field and library inclusive of an IT lab, the college has been described as a hidden treasure.
The new and improved facilities have been constructed over a five- year period and are now complete, ready for the new 2016 school year.
For enrolment inquiries or to find out more information about Peregian Beach College, phone 5448 1722.
