Costs:
Or booking fee is $15.00 per day per child, including afternoon tea. Once a child is enrolled the parent or guardian is responsible for the accounts and needs to notify us of non-attendance prior to 1pm. (Note accounts must be paid in full each week. Payment is applicable whether the child attends or not.)

A late fee will be charged to cover staff wages if children are picked up after 6:00pm.
