Investing in quality early learning—with support to make it accessible for every family.
At Hervey Bay Kindergarten, our daily fee is $145, reflecting our commitment to high-quality, play-based education led by qualified early childhood professionals. We understand that affordability matters, and we’re here to help families access available subsidies and funding options, including:
Queensland Government Free Kindy
From January 2024, eligible families can access 15 hours per week of free kindergarten for 40 weeks of the year. This applies to children who turn 4 years old by 30 June in the year they attend kindy and are enrolled in a government-approved program for at least two days per week.
This funding significantly reduces out-of-pocket costs and can be combined with the
Child Care Subsidy (CCS)
for even greater affordability.
To help your child feel part of our kindy community from day one, every enrolment includes a Hervey Bay Kindy shirt and hat—perfect for play, sun safety, and a sense of belonging.
