as a result of this change we will be requiring all families to provide us with a copy of their child's current immunisation history statement. this can be sent along with your vacation care enrolment form by email, fax or post.

you would have been required to provide this statement to your child's school upon enrolment, if you can't find your statement you can obtain a copy of it by calling the immunisation register on 1800 653 809 or by following this link: www.humanservices.gov.au/customer/services/medicare/australian-childhood-immunisation-register

The Vacation Care daily fee is $50.00.

Please note that all payments will be processed on completion of the school holiday period.

To help us with the administration of the Child Care management System (CCmS) if you are planning to claim your child care Benefit as an up front discount on your Vacation care fees families are required to pay by cRediT cARd only. As the ccMs system means we can only estimate your fee prior to the commencement of the holidays, if paying by cheque or money order we will need to ask you to provide the full fee amount, we will then refund you the discount owing to you once your attendance data has been lodged and council has been advised by the family assistance office of the amount owing to you. families paying full fee for Vacation care may continue to pay by either credit card, cheque or money order.

child cARe BenefiT (CCB) And child cARe ReBATe (CCR)

Child Care Benefit (CCB) is a Government subsidy for families to reduce their child care fees. ccB is available to families using Warringah council’s Vacation care services. families can choose to receive their ccB as fee reduction at the time they pay their fees or to receive it as a lump sum at the end of the financial year. if you are eligible for more than 0% CCB and you wish to receive this subsidy as a lump sum at the end of the year you will need toadvise the Family assistance office that you do not wish to receive your ccB as a fee reduction. your income level

determines how much ccB you can receive. if your income is too high, you will not receive any ccB for approved care, but you may still be eligible to receive the child care Rebate. The child care Rebate is a payment from the Australian Government that helps working families with the cost of child care. This is a separate payment from child care Benefit. if you are using approved child care for work, training or study related reasons, the government will provide you with 50 per cent of your out-of-pocket child care costs. There is no income test for the child care Rebate. if you are eligible for Child Care Benefit but your Child Care Benefit entitlement is zero due to income, you are still eligible for the child care Rebate.

if you have any questions with regard to your eligibility for Child Care Benefit or child care Rebate please call the family assistance office on 13 61 50.

childRen WiTh AddiTiOnAl needs Warringah council Vacation care Programs are additional needs and disability friendly. however, before enrolment we do require detailed information about your child’s individuals needs. if your child has high support needs, additional support may need to be accessed via the Federal Governments inclusion Support Subsidy (iSS). the application process can take some time, so please allow at least eight weeks before enrolment. Contact the Vacation Care Services Coordinator on 9942 2576 as early as possible to ensure that your child can access all aspects of the program.
