Kindergarten Fees Policy
WHY ARE FEES NECESSARY?
The Department of Education and Training (DET) provides per capita funding as a contribution towards the cost of providing a three (starting 2022) and four-year-old kindergarten program. The service is responsible for all costs.
Fees and fundraising are necessary because there is a shortfall between the level of government funding and the cost of operating a viable kindergarten.
CONCESSION RATES :
A parent / guardian or child who holds a current Health Care Card / Pension concession card or Visa 447, 451, 85, or 786 or Dept Veterans Affairs Gold card are all eligible for 100 percent reduction of term fees . A copy of this documentation must be sighted by the Treasurer or a nominated representative of the Kindergarten prior to the start of each term. Copies can be made at the Kindergarten.
The three year old kindergarten program supports a concession for Early Start Kinder as well as the above concession rates.
