How do I enrol my child?

New families are always welcome at JCK. To experience our learning environment we invite families to visit and view our kindergarten. We have highly experienced teachers and Directors who would love to discuss your children’s needs and show you what we offer.

Waitlist form

If you would like to put your child on our waitlist, please complete Our Waitlist Form (CLICK HERE)

You are also welcome to call in to the centre to collect a form in person.

Waitlist fee

There is a $25 non-refundable fee with your waitlist form. Please pay via direct debit to our bank account (details are on the waitlist form).

Waitlist

Payment of the waitlist fee ensures your child is placed on the list for the year they are entitled to attend, but it does not guarantee a place at the centre, if there are more children on the waitlist than places available. We are happy to accept children on our waitlist from birth and we encourage you to place your child’s name on the list as early as possible.

Offers of a place

We contact prospective families in June of the year prior to a child’s correct year of attendance to offer places for the following year. Families have two weeks in which to pay the $100 non-refundable enrolment deposit to secure their child’s place. Once the deposit is paid, you will receive email confirmation. Parent interviews are held with the teacher prior to starting the new year at kindergarten.

Fees

All eligible aged children who meet the criteria under the Free Kindy umbrella do not have to pay any fees for the Kindergarten program from the 1st of January 2024.

A tuition fee of $2,428 is charged for each 10-week term for non-eligible aged students, or those who are claiming 30 hours per fortnight of Kindy already either at another Kindy or at JCK. Please ask for more information regarding your subsidy from government funding. Jamboree Community Kindergarten also reserves the right to make changes to fees as necessary.
