Detailed public billing schedule (invoice dates, exact payment deadlines or standard instalment plan) and explicit payment‑deadline terms are not included in the publicly available fee summary. Boarding fees - Kendale operates as a day primary school for ages 3–11; directories list boarding places as zero and do not publish any boarding fees.
