Mine might be attending our local Steiner school soon & its actually not that expensive.
Though they are only a school of 27 so far, so I think if they want to stay open they need their fees to stay down.
I'm whacking every spare cent into the mortgage and will be redrawing on the mortgage to pay for their education.
It will be $25K in fees, plus books and uniforms etc, for EACH child. That's $50K an year I have to find for six years. And XH is unlikely to lend a hand... so it's going to be me.
All I can do is save, save, save and hope my house has gone up in value enough to be able to withdraw $300K in five to eleven years' time.
25k PER YEAR!? For real? Well, um, I guess Steiner isn't taht exxy after all
We don't have a mortgage, but that's a good idea. Will keep it in mind if we ever buy. sorry, but willing property market to tank...
MadB - I'd love to send my son to a Steiner school, by the sounds of it I had better start saving now! I hope you don't mind me asking, how much per year is the one you are looking at?
1-7 is $950/term at the moment. The STeiner high school is $1,200/term I think. I imagine it varies a fair bit though, depending on all sorts of things.
