Default kids bank accounts

does anyone have any input on kids bank accounts here? when I had a quick wizz round the local banks it seems everyone wanted to charge for the accounts - was hoping to find an account with no charges...?

Have kids accounts with NAB. Interest paid (small) as long as if a minimum of $1 goes in every month.
No fees

Hi, our children have aqccounts with westpac, they are really good, very helpful. We all had accounts with Com bank when we first arrived but found then extremely unhelpful and lots of stupid rules and regs. We recently changed all our banking and morgage to Westpac. No charges for school age children.

Usually if you leave a minium ie $2500 in the account they will waive the fees.
