Kookaburra Korner Early Education Centre provides Care and Education for a maximum of 51 children per day aged between 0-6 years, between the hours of 7.00 am to 6.00 pm on Monday to Friday.

How many children does the centre cater for?

At Kookaburra Korner we believe that young children benefit from smaller group sizes.

We have our Possum Room (6 weeks - 2.5years) with up to 10 babies, and 3 educators in the room. Our Koala Room (2 years-3.5 years) with up to 15 children with 3 educators. Our Preschool Room is the Wombat Room (3-5years). This room can have up to 26 children with 4 staff in the room.

Each room has a playground designed specifically with the age of the children and their development in mind. All our playgrounds are designed with a natural element in mind

Our Centre is licensed for 51 children, under school age.

Can I get Child Care Subsidy (CCS)?

As our centre is a registered and licensed long day care centre, all families (Australian residents) are eligible for CCS. It is up to each family to register with the Family Assistance Office by completing a "Child Care Subsidy Application Form".  CCS reduces the fees that you pay.

Does Kookaburra Korner close over the Christmas Holiday period?

Yes. Kookaburra Korner closes for 2 weeks over the Christmas period.

Do I have to pay fees if my child’s day falls on a public holiday?

No. Kookaburra Korner does not charge fees if your child’s enrolment day falls on a public holiday.

What do I need to bring on my child’s first day?

At Kookaburra Korner all meals, nappies, & sunscreen are provided daily for your child so there is no need to worry about that aspect of your child’s day.                                               

You will need a backpack with changes of clothing for your child. During the day your child will engage in lots of fun activities which are often quite messy and as such we may need to change your child’s clothing. Spare clothes are also necessary as your child starts to eat independently and toilet train as inevitably there will be accidents. A set of spare cot sheets if your child sleeps or has a rest during the day. If your child has a comforter such as a dummy or soft toy, then it may be helpful to bring those in also. If your child is in the babies’ room, bottles and tins of formula will need to be provided.
