If your child is turning 4 by 30 June 2026, your child is eligible to participate in the government-approved kindergarten program where you will be eligible to receive 15 hours per week of FREE Kindy for 40 weeks per year and you can start any time!

We are offering 15hr Free Kindy Program in our Geira 2 Room.  Booking is 3 days per week from 9am-2pm only.  With this offer, you will have no out of pocket expenses for child care.

PAYMENT – this is fully funded program by the Government. That means that there is $0 for the gap fee.

As this program is fully funded for the implementation of the Kindergarten program, there is no additional services included.

1 Group swimming lesson included weekly, private lesson is available at an extra cost.

We will be running our Bush Kindy Explorers on a Monday and Friday so please take this into consideration when choosing your 3 days per week.

If you are wanting additional days, these will need to be booked in our Long Day Care Program at an out-of-pocket expense (after CCS benefits are applied).

The land on which we care for your special children is part of Bundjalung country the home of the Kombumerri people and the language spoken is Yugambeh.
