2016 Proposed Fees (cont’d)

Our Kindergarten is approved and subsidised by the Victorian Government through the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development (DEECD) and accordingly conforms to their standards and regulations regarding educational program and practice, children’s health and safety, physical environment, staffing arrangements, relationships with children, collaborative partnerships with families and communities, and leadership and service management.

4 Year Old Groups

The finance of the four year old groups comes from two main sources:

  • Government subsidy of approximately $3,247[1] per child.
  • Term fees which incorporates prepayment for excursions and incursions.

The amount of government subsidy per child of $3,247 is based on the child being offered one place at 15hrs of kinder program per week. So please speak with our Compliance Manager if your child also attends long day care.

3 Year Old Groups

The three year old groups are not subsidised by the Victorian Government. Finance of these groups comes from term fees which incorporates prepayment for excursions and incursions.

Children are eligible for attendance in the three year old program provided that they have turned three years of age prior to the 30 April in that year, however they can not commence until after they have turned three years of age. (Please note however that term fees are to be paid for the full year to hold the place).
