If you have questions about the process, our Centre Manager is always happy to assist, or you can contact the Family Assistance Office on 13 61 50 for more information.

You’re welcome to book from just one day a week. However, we recommend at least two days so children can settle in, form strong bonds, and get the most from our programs.
Normal fees apply for booked days, including public holidays and absences due to illness or holidays.
If your child becomes unwell while with us, we’ll contact you straight away using the details on your enrolment form.
