School Holidays
Hi All,
What do you all do with your kids during the school holdidays? We have two young children, Girl aged 8 and boy aged 3. When we move to Australia, we will both have to work - so I'm really looking to see what options we have during the school holidays. In the Uk, we are fortunate enough to have the Grandparents to look after them while we are at work. We will be looking to move to the Melbourne or surronding area. Thanks in Advance Eddie |
Re: School Holidays
Hi Eddie, there are vacation care programmes set up, also known as out-of-school care. If your visa entitles you to Centrelink payments, there are rebates and also some amount gets refunded via the tax system.
Here in WA, the opening hours vary a bit, somewhere between 0700 and 0800, usually closing 1730-1800. How you decide on a service depends on many things:
Some families take it in turns to look after other kids. I find that having 4 kids at home is no more trouble than having just my 2, as they're happy to play together. Going out with 4 kids - that's another story:ohmy: (for those of us not used to it). |
