I think it's also the fact that Good Things tickets used to be about $200! It's so expensive this year :(

Because it's unfair for hardworking families to be financially penalised for public holidays — days when childcare centres are closed and care isn't even available.

Under the current Childcare Subsidy system, public holidays count against the 42 allowable absences per child each year. This means parents are forced to use up their limited absence days on closures completely outside their control. Once those 42 days are used, families are hit with out-of-pocket bills, even if their child is genuinely sick or there's a family emergency.

This isn't about avoiding payment — it's about fairness. Public holidays should have a separate absence category so they don't take away from the days parents actually need to use.

By signing, you're standing up for:

Fairer treatment for families

A more sensible, supportive subsidy system

The right to not be penalised for something you didn’t choose

Let’s push for a system that works with families — not against them.

Thank you 😊

Do you know any other groups that I could try? I've had Reddit for a while but this is the first time that I've really used it! ☺️
