Costs and fees

PublishingPageContent

​​​​​The Tinaroo Environmental Education Centre has two campuses located around Tinaroo Dam on the Atherton Tablelands.  Accommodation and catering charges are determined by the management of the Centre and increases are linked to the Consumer Price Index.

In addition, the Tinaroo EEC charges a daily education services fee to students to cover operational costs for delivery of the education programs. 

Upon completion of each program an appropriate a tax invoice will be prepared either by the Department of Education (who will directly debit your school) or by Tinaroo Environmental Education Centre, who will directly email the school for payment and listing all items for client reference (GST calculations per item will be clearly identified).

Some charges for 2023 have increased as a result of the long term expansion of this Centre and the Education Queensland financial model. This accounts for the sizeable financial contribution by EQ and also the additional cost of staffing that TEEC is required to fund to provide an ongoing service to schools. This includes the increase in staffing costs to provide meals at the Black Gully Campus. The prices for Residential Camps outlined below include all Accommodation, Meals and Educational Services.
