Fees 2011-2012 and the School Hours
In the current economic environment, we understand that the cost of fees can be strong influencing factor when differentiating between schools in the independent sector.
At HOHS we aim to be as transparent as possible with
our fees, which are inclusive of many elements that are considered extras at other schools, i.e. after-school care, day boarding, supervised prep, lunches and some extra-curricular clubs and activities.
We do offer scholarships, discounts and bursaries.
