Our best brings out their best, every day.
We are the connection between schools, families and communities that helps every child reach their potential.
Safety is #1
Safeguarding children is at the heart of everything we do at Jabiru – from our governance frameworks to daily interaction between staff and children. Protecting children is everyone’s responsibility. If we have a reasonable suspicion a child has been harmed, is at risk of harm, or is experiencing neglect, we are legally required to report this to the relevant authorities.

Your OSHC
Designing services tailored to support children’s social, emotional and cognitive development, with a focus on learning through play creating structured and spontaneous activities, from arts and crafts to outdoor games and team-building exercises. Helping children build positive relationships with peers, educators and the broader community. Working closely with schools to ensure continuity in learning and social growth. Fostering an inclusive culture where every child feels valued, supported and confident.
Connection before correction
At the heart of our approach is the belief that discipline means guidance and growth, not control or punishment. Each day, children are discovering who they are, how to express themselves and how to navigate the world around them. By teaching, modelling and guiding, educators help children learn from their experiences and strengthen their sense of self, independence and confidence. Our guiding principles are grounded in children’s agency, voice and wellbeing: Child-centred Collaboration; Capable Environments; Therapeutic Partnerships; Proactive Support; and, Trauma Informed Approaches.
Beyond the standard
Inclusivity and individualised support for each child are fundamental to the way we operate at Jabiru, to create a well-rounded experience. This is not just a point of view; it’s backed by our own Practice Framework — part of The Jabiru Way. And there’s so much richness of experience for children to enjoy. In addition, we comply with the National Quality Framework (NQF) – that includes laws and standards designed to ensure all children experience great care, and Jabiru’s services are approved by the Australian Children’s Education and Care Quality Authority (ACECQA).

Childcare subsidy.
How does fee assistance work?
Our fees are already very affordable, however families eligible for Child Care Subsidy pay even less, with a proportion of their fees paid by Centrelink. Your family’s combined income will determine your percentage of subsidy. The parent or guardian with the lowest hours of recognised activity per fortnight will determine the hours of subsidised care you can claim per fortnight. Your Child Care Subsidy is automatically credited to your Jabiru account, and our invoice to you will only be for the gap between your subsidy and our fees.
How do I apply for Child Care Subsidy?
You will need to apply through Centrelink for this subsidy. To calculate how much you would be eligible for, check the graph below. For a more accurate assessment, visit the Services Australia web site to use the Childcare Subsidy Calculator.
A guide to your subsidy eligibility.
Vacation care
With everything from museums and movies to skating and hands-on workshops, your child will be well cared fo while enjoying a wide range of activities and excursions at our vacation care. We publish our vacation care program before the holidays, so you can avoid the vacation juggle. Although we try to keep these costs as low as possible, holiday excursions and special guests incur an extra cost and we prioritise families who work, vulnerable children and our regular permanent bookings to ensure families who need care are able to access our program.
Transition to prep
We aim to support you and your child in this important year, helping children make friends and get used to the school routine. Starting school is a big adventure. At Jabiru we love spending time with preppies. Before school begins, children can start with Jabiru in the January holidays, giving them a confident head start. They can settle in quickly, make friends and feel secure, with support from our Prep Specialist. Each morning, we walk them to class and every afternoon we bring them safely to our OSHC space.
It takes a village
Our approach values the unique qualities of our programs, actively seeking input from parents, the school, P&C and, most importantly, the children. By connecting with our communities, our Service and Educational Leaders can design programs that work for everyone. We understand that when children are happy, families are happy, and that happy families create the foundation for thriving schools. Along with our daily schedule for kids from Prep to Year 6, we offer a mixture of excursions — from discos to cinema visits, baby animal days to art-and-craft extravaganzas — or special guests and activities. Jabiru is a place where it’s fun to belong!
Partnering with schools
Partnering with schools to align learning and play experiences, we support childrens’ growth and bring out their best. Working together, we aim to understand the unique needs of each school and its staff, offering resources and training to enhance staff knowledge and skills. We engage with families to ensure clear communication about their child’s day. Where Student Wellbeing Officers are present, we connect families with relevant services in their community.
Outdoor play creates grounded children.
We believe outdoor, nature-based play is essential to children’s wellbeing, imagination and connection to place. Guided by our Outdoor Play Program and supported by our Practice Leaders, we make full use of each school’s unique outdoor spaces to create meaningful, engaging experiences that promote confidence, belonging and growth. Our programming includes:
- Nature play that encourages curiosity, risk-taking and imaginative exploration
Loose parts play using open-ended materials to build creativity and problem-solving - Garden spaces that support sensory regulation and build understanding of sustainability
- Flexible, mobile furniture and resources to bring activities outdoors
- Progressive implementation tailored to the school community.

Fees and benefits.
If your child won’t be attending on a day you’ve booked, we need to know, even if you can’t give us two business days’ notice. If a child is on our roll and doesn’t attend, we will contact you, the school and any other nominated person until we have identified the location of a child and confirmed their safety. If we are unable to make contact with you or a nominated contact and we are not able to locate your child, we may contact the Police. The school does not pass on information to us about absent children, or those that leave school early.
Fair Fees
Jabiru endeavours to keep fees fair and affordable for families. Each of our services is unique and so the fees vary from service to service. Find your school in the list above to see what your Jabiru service fees are
Additional Fees and charges
- Late fee (child not collected by closing time) —
$10 .00 per child for the first 10 mins and $1 .00 per minute thereafter
- Non-communication fee (where the booking is not
cancelled and we have to contact you to locate the child) — $10 .00 per child.
How to Pay
All Jabiru fees are payable in arrears, not in advance. We will email you a fee statement every week.
Jabiru requires all families to provide a Direct Debit Authority nominating a financial institution account to pay your fees from. Direct Debit assists parents with convenient ways to pay, helps Jabiru avoid bad debts and keeps administration costs lower – so we can invest more in our services.
You can nominate whether you want us to debit your account weekly or fortnightly, on a Thursday.
If you wish to avoid having fees taken from your account, you can pay your account in full as detailed in your fee statement, before the direct debit date. If we do not receive your payment by this date, we will debit your nominated account.
Families with shared custody
Where both caregivers require the Jabiru service, each caregiver will need to complete separate enrolments and bookings and contact Centrelink to make Child Care Subsidy (CCS) arrangements.
Casual booking surcharges, cancellations and alterations
Casual bookings can be made week to week or in advance, and may incur an additional charge. Please check your service page on the website, or contact the service, for details on surcharges and booking notice requirements (all surcharges to your account will be reduced by CCS, depending on your eligibility). Permanent bookings are for set days in a term or year but can be altered. To cancel or change your
permanent booking, notify your service in writing. Alternatively, email office@jabiru.org.au
Cancellation of one-off days can be made on Xap.
Cancellation Periods
- Two (2) business days’ notice: Fee waived
- Less than two business days: Regular session fee charged
- Submission of a medical certificate for child or carer: Fee waived.
Please note that CCS is payable for up to 42 absences per child
per financial year – any absences beyond this may be charged at
the full rate.
