Out of Hours School Care
Before School Care OOSCA offers children the chance to relax in a homely environment before starting their school day. We provide a nutritious breakfast and the children participate in games, drawing and other activities.
After School Care Upon the completion of school, all children line up in a designated area to be escorted to OOSCA for the afternoon session. During this time we offer a range of nutritious foods for afternoon tea as well as many indoor and outdoor activities that the children may be interested in.
Vacation Care OOSCA offers care within the school holiday period and endeavours to make this time as relaxing and as fun as possible for the children. We aim for the children to feel as though they are on holiday and are not coming to an environment similar to school.
