Kindergarten Fees
When reviewing our fee structure for the core kindy program you can choose fees subsidised by the Queensland Kindy Funding program or by the Child Care Subsidy (CCS). Depending on your personal family circumstances one program may offer greater savings than the other.
The following table outlines the daily fees for eligible-aged children (children turning 4 by June 30 of the year attending kindy) under the Queensland Kindy Funding program:

Only one centre can claim the relevant funding subsidy for your child. If your child is enrolled in another kindergarten program (for example, in a childcare centre or another kindergarten) while they are enrolled at our centre, you need to choose which centre receives the funding.
*Non-eligible enrolments include children born on or after 1 July 2019 (they will not turn four by 30 June 2023), children who are enrolled in two kindergarten groups at the same centre and are therefore ineligible for the Queensland Kindergarten Funding for the second group, and children claiming the Queensland Kindergarten Funding at another centre.
Alternatively, you can choose the fee structure below funded by the Child Care Subsidy.
