We encourage you to pay fees by automatic payment or direct credit. Invoice/Statements will be issued at the end of each week. When your child leaves the centre all unpaid fees are to be paid on or before their last day. Any outstanding amount owing over 30 days will be passed onto a debt collection agency. All costs of debt recovery will be added to the account.

Casual Days

All casual days should be given at least 1 week's notice unless it is an emergency.  If wanting to take advantage of the remaining 20 ECE hours the existing attestation form must be amended or a new attestation form completed.
