Science Alive – Diary Date for a Family Outing 

I have the Science Alive! Days at the Wayville Show Grounds already in my calendar for an outing with my 2 grandchildren. It is a high quality engaging experience for us all. Also great fun. We go every year. 

 

We have received a 10% discount voucher from the organisers for Marion Primary School families. Just go to Tickets - Science Alive! 2023 (lup.com.au) and enter the promo code: MarionPS10

 

Maybe we’ll bump into each other there!

What's changing?

From 10 July:

  • The family income limit to get CCS is increasing to $530,000.
  • The maximum amount of CCS is increasing from 85% to 90%.
  • Families earning $80,000 or less will get 90% subsidy.
  • Families earning over $80,000 and under $530,000 will get a subsidy that tapers down from 90%, depending on their income. The subsidy will go down 1% for each $5,000 earned.
  • Families earning below $362,408 with more than one child aged 5 or under in care can still get a higher rate for their second and younger children.
  • Families can get at least 36 hours of subsidised care per fortnight for each Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander child in their care, regardless of their activity level.
