Second Term 2023<\/p>\n<p>We hope you all had a safe Easter break with your families and are looking forward to an activity-filled term back at the College. It is never pleasant to communicate fee increases but, as you have seen, It is absolutely necessary if we are to continue to not only survive, but thrive, in this economy.<\/p>\n<p>1. The fee for 2nd term will be ZWL 11,330,000.00,<\/p>\n<p>2. Please note, as always, Clearance Certificates will be required for entry to the College at the beginning of term,<\/p>\n<p>3. Parents are requested to send a copy of their payments via email to debtors@falconcollege.com for the Accounts Office to identify the payment and respond with a Clearance Certificate.<\/p>\n<p>Many parents choose to pay the fee in US$: if this option is of interest to you, please contact the Bulawayo or Harare office to discuss this. We wish you a safe and enjoyable holiday, and look forward seeing you all back in the College.<\/p>\n<p>Yours faithfully,<\/p>\n<p>Andrew Marchussen Chairman, Fakon College Board of Governors<\/p>\n<p>Dave van Wyk Headmaster<\/p>\n<p>Tel: +263-881249\/881269\/881289<\/p>\n<p>Address: Falcon College, Whites Run Road, ESIGODINI, Zimbabwe &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The depreciation of the Zimbabwean dollar has resulted in businesses and schools being forced to raise their fees and charges.
