Fees
Fees are due and payable every two weeks via direct debit. On the Monday of the 2-week period you’ll be emailed a statement for that week and the following week. Your fees will continually be the same unless the amount of days your child attends Preschool has changed, or your child care benefit/rebate percentage has changed. Your fee statement will be emailed to you.
- Fees MUST be paid up to date.
- If fees fall into arrears, your child’s place at the centre will be jeopardized and may be offered to someone on the waiting list.
