Rebates

Families at Long Day Care centres, like Glenaeon, are eligible to receive a rebate or benefit which comes off the scheduled fee charged (if they are Australian citizens).

Approximately 45% of our families receive government childcare assistance through the preschool. Of these families, the average amount received is 46% or around $45.50 off the preschool standard day fee – i.e. families would pay around $53.50. For the Long Day they receive around $50 off – so they pay $59.

N.B. Preschools – i.e. NOT Long Day Care Centres – are given money directly to their centre as a whole. A preschool may have a budgeted fee amount of $100 per day from 9am until 3pm and receive around $45-$50 per child per day so charge a fee after the overall rebate of $50-$65.
