Check this link for your relevant state for QLD its blue card system
https://www.bluecard.qld.gov.au/disqualification.html
Similar sa akin dahil RN ako and I have contact with children as the course of my work i had to have my name included in the register. its about 108aud.
I am pretty sure your employer will require this check. be sure to get a employee blue card and not a volunteer one.

Teachers will need only an Exemption Card kasi exempted ang teachers and police sa Blue Card System.
"Registered teachers and police officers providing child-related services that fall outside of their professional duties do not require a blue card. They should instead apply for an exemption card."
Source: https://www.bluecard.qld.gov.au/applications/need-to-apply-for-card.html
Tapos dun sa form, may part na employer ang sasagot. So kukuha lang ako nun pag pinarequire ng employer, and sila ang mag-iinitiate nun.
@cpa_oct2011
If you want the safest and fastest route, do a wire transfer from the bank itself. I did mine through BPI, straight from my BPI savings account to my NAB savings account.
