At Haven ELC we want to be able to offer you the best possible childcare at the best possible rate. We know that childcare can be expensive and that why we want to offer families a range of packages that will suit your family’s needs. Below are the details for 20 hours ECE that is subsidised by the Government. At Haven we have subsidised time over and above the government subsidy by offering additional education and care for $3 per hour for up to 6 hours per day. Additional hours are available at only $6 per hour.
This price is available to all age ranges and we are proud to offer this amazing price while spaces are available. Please contact us for further information and to book. This subsidy will be reviewed every year.
Terms and Conditions:
The $3 per hour requires that your account remains up to date.
The 20 ECE hours for ages 3 and above are subject to a maximum of 6 hours per day (a government condition).
Booked hours need to be kept to and attended (again, a government condition).
How ECE Works
The government subsidises 20 hours per week for all children aged 3-6 years who attend an Early Learning Centre, with the requirement that they attend at the booked times.
