​

For Community Preschools in 2024, the NSW Government is currently providing a fee relief of $4,220 over the full preschool year for all families  - for child enrolled in at least 600 hours of preschool. If you choose to accept fee relief from our preschool, the amount is deducted from full fees (on 2 days per week, over the full year of preschool, 41 school term weeks) on a pro rata basis. A term invoice is issued and payable with any fee relief applied so there will be nothing more for you to do or claim.

2024 fees with fee relief applied: 

• For 4/5 yo child (4 years by 31 July 2024) - $159.73/week for 3 days Mon-Wed group and $72.18/week for 2 days Thur/Fri group

• For 3 yo child (4 years from 1 August 2024) - $92.78/week for 2 days Thur/Fri group                                                                        

Priority will be given to children 4 yo+ as required (turns 4 yo by 31st July, 2024).

 

NOTE: fee relief can only be claimed from ONE service provider, you must sign a NSW government declaration form to claim fee relief before it will be applied.

 

Fee relief is based on economic circumstances each year. If there is a fee relief the amount is stipulated by the government.  

Further fee relief for some special circumstances maybe available, please contact the Centre Director for further details.
