Families with children aged 4 to 13 years that attend a primary school in NSW can receive a $500 voucher per child to reduce the out-of-pocket costs of before and after school care.
This includes children who are starting kindergarten in 2022.
You can apply for a voucher from 28 February to 30 September 2022 for each eligible child through Service NSW website or at a Service NSW Centre.
A voucher can be:

- used on any weekday during the school term, or on days of the week when vacation care is provided during the redemption period.
Your child must be:
