Bookings
Bookings are essential before the start of the programme to confirm your child’s place. To make a booking or enquire about the availability for Before School Care or After School, please email office@bayviewcentre.org.nz.
Please contact us if you have any questions or issues making your booking on (09) 443 0231. Invoices are sent weekly on a Monday and fees must be paid weekly.
The Centre has a no refund policy, therefore if your child is booked in and does not attend, then you will be charged. Permanent enrolments are entitled to the equivalent of two weeks worth of leave per year which can be used as sick days or planned holidays at no charge - this must be requested at the time of the advice.
If you have not enrolled with a permanent booking for that session, you are deemed to have a "Casual Enrolment". This costs an extra $1 per session. Casual attendances are only if space is available on a day by day basis.
Out of School Care and Recreation (OSCAR) subsidy is a payment which helps families with the costs of before-school and after-school programmes for up to 20 hours a week, and school holiday programmes for up to 50 hours a week. To check whether you qualify for a WINZ subsidy please visit the Work and Income website.

The casual pricing is $40 per day per child if booked after this date. There is additional charges for trip days and some activities. Early drop off or late pick up fees are also charged.
