A Queensland primary school principal has received an outpouring of social media support for charging parents who drop their kids off early to school.
Burrowes State School principal, Kristine Lemon, advised parents in an email last week that any drop offs before 8:30am would be charged $2.60 per child, including breakfast.
Some commenters said the change was “unfair” to working parents, but others said the fee was cheaper than alternative childcare, and teachers shouldn’t be treated like babysitters.
