It is our aim to keep our fees as affordable as possible. The fees we charge help us to ensure that we maintain a high standard of quality care and education. As a not-for-profit preschool we are able to reinvest any surplus funds into developing the preschool. Set out below is our fee structure and information about the subsidies that you may be eligible for.
Session times and fee
Full day (8 hours) – $52.00
School day (6 hours) – $43.50
Half day (4 hours) – $32.00
Start/finish times available in 15‑minute increments (e.g., 8:45am–2:45pm)
If your child is unable to attend preschool due to illness or family holidays, you will only be charged 50% of your booked days.
20 hours Subsidy
Families with 3 and 4-year-olds can access the 20 Hours subsidy. This is limited to a maximum of 6 hours per day.
An optional fee of $0.75 per hour applies for hours used under this subsidy. As a community-based, not-for-profit preschool, this contribution helps us keep fees as low as possible and reinvest in our programme, resources, and environment for all children.
WINZ Subsidy
Many families can access a subsidy from WINZ. To find out if you are eligible please contact the preschool or WINZ.
