We encourage all families entering the waitlist to maintain contact with the centre, amend their details / requirements by contacting the office on 07-5572 7333 or admin@albertwaterwayscc.org.au. Periodically the centre will make contact with the families on the waitlist to ensure the details are relevant and active. The waitlist application is valid for 1 year unless family has maintained contact.

We actively advise families to plan ahead, view several centres before committing funds to waitlist.
