General/bookings:
The Cockburn ARC Kids Get Active Holiday Program operates during school holidays and each session is booked on an individual day basis.
Upfront payment for each session is required at time of booking. If fees are not paid, your booking will be cancelled, and your child will not be able to participate in the program.
Parent/guardians are not required to be present for the duration of the sessions but must always be on call in case the ARC needs to get in contact, and available to pick-up upon request.
The Kids Get Active is a license-exempt program and therefore the Child Care Rebate does not apply.
Sessions do not operate on public holidays.
If children are picked up after 5:00pm, a $30.00 late pick up fee will be charged for the first 30 minutes of lateness, and $30 accumulatively applied every 30 minutes thereafter. The late pick-up fee must be paid upon sign-out.

Children must behave appropriately while participating in a Cockburn ARC program and will not engage in disruptive, dangerous, or inappropriate conduct.
