Kids Collective participates in the 20 Hours ECE government funding scheme.
It is available to all 3, 4 & 5 year old children.
Funding rates have been calculated on the very basic regulated standards which we exceed at Kids Collective.
We are committed to maintaining a much higher standard of facilities, staffing and education than the minimum government regulated standard.
This means that our operating costs for the centre are not fully covered by government funding.
As a direct result of this we do have a small fixed per week charge for those children exclusively utilising 20 Hours ECE.
Further information regarding this charge is available in our enrolment paperwork.

Payment of Fees
Fees are required to be paid weekly by direct deposit into our bank account.
No cash or cheques for weekly fees will be accepted at the centre.
Fees are required to be paid for all days a child is enrolled regardless of attendance which is affected
by health, personal reasons or public holidays.
A record of all fees paid will be maintained by the centre. An invoice/statement can be provided if requested.
Families are required to notify the centre, in writing, at least two weeks in advance prior to the child finishing at the centre.
Any unpaid fees may be referred to a debt collector and may include debt recovery costs.

WINZ Subsidies
Work and Income subsidies are available for families who qualify for this.
The centre will charge full fees until a subsidy has been approved and the centre has been paid by WINZ.
Any resulting monies due back to the family will be credited to the child’s account.
Families receiving WINZ subsidies are responsible for ensuring their subsidy is maintained and reviewed as necessary. If a subsidy amount decreases or stops completely the family will be liable for all fees owing to the centre.
Any delays or under-payment by WINZ as a result of family inattention to the subsidy will be charged directly to the family.
