Booking Fee
Once you are offered a place, we ask for a bond to secure your booking. The bond is refunded on leaving the Centre if all fees are up to date.

Daily Fees
The Centre will provide the Federal Government's "Childcare Benefit" subsidy for which many parents will be eligible. Parents eligible for a further subsidy, Child Care Rebate, can also have this paid to the Centre which will further reduce their weekly fees.

The fees payable will then depend on the Childcare Benefit subsidy, Child Care Rebate, the number of days booked and the group in which a child is enrolled.

Applications for Childcare Benefit and Child Care Rebate should be made with the Family Assistance Office
on 136 150.

If you have not already been assessed, we would strongly recommend that you contact the Family Assistance Office as soon as possible if you are likely to require childcare in the near future.

What to Bring
Children will require lunch, morning and afternoon tea, a change of clothes, a set of sheets (cot size), a hat, and under 2½ years, disposable nappies, trainer pants etc as required. Full details about the Centre are contained in our Centre Handbook which is provided upon enrolment.
