Attendance and non-notification fee: If your child is not attending on any morning or afternoon for which you have booked, please use the (MFL) My family Lounge app and mark them absent. If for any reason it's not working, you can ring 97997393, email care@shareoosh.com.au or text 0419 686 587 and inform us.
It is extremely important that you inform us if your child is going to be absent, especially for an afternoon session. It takes a considerable amount to time to establish the whereabouts of a child, and this impacts on all the other children who are waiting to leave school. If we need to ring you to find out the whereabouts of your child, then a $20.00 non-notification fee will be added to your fees. As per our policy, two Educators are required to remain at school until your child is located. At 4pm, if we have been unable to contact any members of the child’s families or emergency contacts to establish where your child is, our Policy states that we are to ring Triple 000 and report your child as missing.
​
LATE FEE (Service Fee):
​
A Service fee is payable for any late collection of children, i.e. after 6.00pm.
The rate of fee is as follows
This charge will be added to your account.
​​
-
Between 6:00pm – 6:15pm $20.00
-
Between 6:15pm – 6:30pm $40.00
-
Between 6:30pm – 6:45pm $60.00
Thereafter $20.00 per 15 minutes additional, although if the child is not collected by 6.45pm and emergency contacts are unsuccessful, SHARE will contact New South Wales Department of Communities and Justice (DCJ) to make a report regarding an uncollected child. Police may be notified if DCJ deem this necessary.
​
If you are running late or unable to collect your child, it would be appreciated if you could advise SHARE so that the Educators can make arrangements to work back and that your child can be informed of the changes in collection. It should be noted that the service fee will still be charged. If you arrange for someone else to collect your child please let us know by email, phone or text as to who they will be. If they are not on your emergency contact list, we will require their name, address and contact phone number.
This person will be required to provide proof of identity upon arrival.
​
If your child does not attend for 2 weeks, and you do not notify us regarding whether you wish to maintain or cancel your child’s enrolment, it will be assumed that care is no longer required, and that place will be allocated to another child. Any questions please ask Jenny or Margaret.
Payment of Fees:
Fees are paid via Debit success. You will receive an invoice on a Thursday with the amount owing, and the money will be removed from your nominated bank account the following Monday.
​
Child Care Subsidy (CCS):
Child Care Subsidy (CCS) is a payment from the Commonwealth Government to assist families with child care fees. Parents must apply to be assessed for CCS, either online or at Centrelink. Parents who were previously assessed for CCB/CCR can complete an online assessment via their myGov account. Parents are then responsible for confirming enrolments and updating their income and activity hours via their myGov account.
In order for SHARE to receive CCS on your behalf you must ensure that the following details are clearly provided on the child’s enrolment form:
-
Customer Reference number of the child/ren you are enrolling, and their date(s) of birth; and
-
Customer Reference number (CRN) of the parent who will be claiming the rebate, and their date of birth.
-
Once a child is enrolled, parents need to confirm their child’s enrolment at the service via their myGov account in order for CCS to be paid.
