Enrolment for 2021 and 2022

Enrolment for 2021 and 2022 are currently open. Places are limited, especially for Kindergarten and Year 7. 

Should you have a child who will be starting Kindergarten in 2021 or Year 7 in 2021 or 2022 and have not yet submitted an enrolment form, please complete the form by clicking this link or visit the College Office for a printed copy. 

The enrolment of current students (including Year 6) rolls over from year to year, so a new form is not required. 

 

For any families who are thinking of ceasing their enrolment at Mount Carmel College in December 2020, a reminder that written notice of at least ten school weeks is required prior to withdrawal of a student from the school. Where notice is not provided, full tuition fees and all levies will need to be paid for the number of weeks where notice was not provided.

 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to make contact by calling the College on 6216 7900 or emailing at: enrol@mountcarmel.tas.edu.au

Child Care Subsidy

Child Care Subsidy (CCS) is starting again on 13 July 2020. If you were receiving CCS before 6 April 2020, it will automatically start again if you’ve stayed eligible and your enrolment is current and confirmed. Follow these five steps to make sure you’ve stayed eligible and receive the right amount of CCS: 

  1. Give Centrelink your 2020–21 family income estimate to receive the correct CCS percentage and avoid an overpayment.
  2. Check your activity hours to receive the correct amount of hours of CCS per fortnight*.
  3. Make sure your child meets immunisation requirements.
  4. Check your child’s enrolment details are current with your child care service and re-enrol if you need to.
  5. Confirm your income for 2018–19 if you haven’t already by 30 June 2020.

*From 13 July 2020, the Australian Government is easing the activity test for CCS. This means you may be able to apply for extra activity hours if COVID-19 has affected you. There will be more information about how to do this in July.

 

If you’re new to child care, you should claim CCS as soon as possible. From 13 July 2020, you’ll pay full fees unless you’re getting CCS. For more information, visit Services Australia. The Department of Education, Skills and Employment has created an information sheet for families about the transition arrangements for the end of the Early Childhood Education and Care Relief Package  and the return to CCS.
