Hi - we are moving to Toowoomba in July this year with a 3 and 5 year old, am I right in thinking the 3 yr old will go to day care/preschool and the 5 yr old can start full time primary (kindergarten)?

 

Also costs - is it donations and paying for the "extras"

 

Thanks - I'm bamboozled!

You will have to pay for the child care and you wont get any support from the government for that so you will be up for $60 - $80 per day depending on the centre you choose. The 5 year old will be free but with "voluntary donations" which arent really voluntary (around $100 per term) plus all the extras - uniforms, book packs, excursions, performances, extra lessons etc

Hope you don't mind me asking but what are the before and after school

clubs like? What time do they start/finish? and roughly what are the costs involved?

As I will be working shifts and my husband will be looking for employment at sometime, making sure our son has care is a big concern for us.

 

Kind regards
