Before and After School Care

We support busy families with high quality care, before and after school. Our programs are suitable for children from five to 12 years old and will complement your child's school learning through a fun mix of educational activities.

Typical activities include arts and crafts, board games and puzzles, cooking, dance and drama, and sport and ball games. Your child will also get the opportunity to socialise and make new friends with other children.

Plus, we'll provide a healthy breakfast before school and delicious snacks after school.

We also offer a Pupil Free Day program throughout the school year, depending on booking numbers.

Child Care Subsidy (CCS)

Our Before and After School Care programs qualify for the Federal Government's Child Care Subsidy (CCS). CCS helps eligible families access approved and registered child care providers by partially subsidising the cost of daily fees.

The 'Fee' price listed in the table above is the full permanent or casual daily fee for each program without any CCS entitlements.

*The 'You pay as little as' price is an example of the out of pocket fee paid by families who qualify for the maximum CCS percentage (90%). The fees above are calculated at 85% subsidy to allow for the 5% withheld by Services Australia to reduce the chances of an overpayment.

Refer to the Government website for more information about CCS funding and your eligibility. We also recommend using this CCS calculator to estimate your new subsidy payments.

Our customer service and onsite teams are happy to assist you with any queries you have regarding this funding and to help you navigate the system.
