I agree to pay an enrolment fee of $50 per child at the time of enrolment to ensure my child’s space at Kidz Time is confirmed. This fee is non refundable and will then go towards childcare fees once my regular automatic payment has been set-up.
I agree to give 2 weeks notice to Kidz Time (by email in writing) if I wish to change my booking (reduce or increase days of attendance).
I agree to give 2 weeks notice to Kidz Time (by email in writing) if I wish to cancel my booking at Kidz Time.
I agree to pay the late collection fee of $5 per 5 minutes (per child) if my child is collected after our closing time of 6pm.
I agree to pay $5 to Kidz Time when I do not notify Kidz Time my child is absent (after school care only – children are signed-in by parent/guardian at before school care and school holiday Ppogramme). For the safety of your child, staff will contact parents and emergency contacts listed on the enrolment form. This removes a staff member from ratio and is often a very time consuming process.
I agree to pay my fees in advance by at least one week, including the payment for any absent days, teacher only days, or statutory holidays.
I agree a 15% administration fee will be added if my account remains overdue more than 2 weeks.
I agree that if fees remain unpaid for more than 3 weeks, my child’s enrolment may be forfeited and the debt passed to a debt collection agency for collection. Any additional expenses incurred in this process are the responsibility of the debtor.
I agree that if my account remains in arrears and my child’s booking is cancelled, Kidz Time may pass my information on to the new OSCAR programme that my child attends.
I agree to pay full fees in the event of an Emergency Closure. However, each emergency closure will be taken on a case-by-case basis.
I agree I cannot swap my child’s permanent booked in days of attendance. Extra days of care will be accepted by Kidz Time only if space is available, this extra care will then be charged as a Casual booking. Your child will be marked absent for their normal day(s) if they do not attend.
All fees at Kidz Time are GST Inclusive.

Public Holidays, Teacher Only Days, and Sick Days

If a public holiday or teachers only day falls on a day your child normally attends, full fees are still payable.
Absence days for sickness, playing at a friends house, and the like, are all payable in full.
Before and After School Care fees are not charged for the duration of the Primary School Holidays – these holiday dates are in accordance with the operating dates for Paparoa Street School

Other Important Information

Kidz Time operates before school care from 7:30am and after school care 3:00-6:00pm.
Kidz Time is required by Child, Youth and Family, to close Kidz Time in special emergency situations. This may include, but is not limited to, extreme weather conditions such as a major snow fall, loss of power to Kidz Time, earthquake causing damage, etc. In any such event you will be required to collect your child(ren) from Kidz Time or advised that Kidz Time will not open.
We do not encourage children to bring special/expensive items/toys (such as iPads, iPhones, jewellery etc) to Kidz Time. We ask for these to remain at home please. If a child is required to have an item at school, please advise our Kidz Time staff prior to your child attending Before/After School Care so our staff can keep it safely locked away.

However, accidents do happen, and I/we agree for Kidz Time to arrange any urgent medical treatment if required for my/our child, at my/our cost.
