All early learning centres across the G8 Education network accept applications for future enrolments, and we offer enrolment placements as they become available. Our Family Support Team will add your child’s name to our waitlist if a centre is currently full in your child’s age group. We will then contact you as soon as places become available.

We also do monthly check-ins to review availability, and you will receive a text message confirming whether you’re still happy to remain on the waitlist each month. When spots do become vacant, we will call you to let you know.

If you would like an update at any point, you’re welcome to reach out on our Web Chat or give us a call. Our Family Support Team can also help you find more early learning centres near you, with the same offerings at the centre you are interested in and immediate availability.

If your children show signs of an infectious illness when they arrive at their centre or become sick during the day, you may be notified that you need to make alternative arrangements or pick up your child from the centre and keep them home until they are no longer infectious. While we understand that this can be inconvenient, we’re committed to maintaining a healthy environment and reducing the risk of infection for all children.

Under the Child Care Subsidy (CCS), families are allowed 42 absence days per child, per financial year. These can be taken for any reason, including public holidays and when children are sick, without the need for families to provide documentation.

Absences should only be claimed when care would have been provided if the child had not been absent and the family has been charged a fee for the session of care. Child Care Subsidy is only payable for absences submitted before a child has started at a service or after a child’s final day of actual attendance at a service under limited circumstances.

The Child Care Subsidy is a government subsidy designed to reduce child care fees for parents. Families must meet certain eligibility criteria for Child Care Subsidy (CCS).

The amount of Child Care Subsidy a family can get depends on their circumstances. Use our Child Care Subsidy Calculator to determine how much your family is entitled to.
