Vacation Care

With only six weeks until the end of term, we’re getting OOSH ready for vacation care that will operate from Thursday 8 December to Friday 16 December 2022. To ensure that we’re getting into the Christmas spirit we’ve planned an incursion and activity program that is full of Christmas shows and craft activities that are certain to bring fun and laughter. Our Christmas program will be the perfect opportunity for children to catch up and play with friends after a busy year at school.

OOSH will then close from Monday 19 December 2022 to Friday 6 January 2023. When OOSH re-opens on Monday 9 January 2023, the second half of the summer vacation care program will be delivered. The focus of this portion of the program is on having fun with friends in summer with plenty of activities with water and sports to get children active outdoors. The incursion and activity program during this portion of vacation care will also include a couple of excursions to local venues. When choosing incursions and excursions, we always undertake a risk assessment on the experience and/or venue to identify potential hazards and the control measures that can be used to protect children from harm. Parents and carers can read incursions and excursions risk assessments prior to making a decision about their child’s participation in them, they’re available at OOSH.

The vacation care program is below for you and your child to read. If you would like your children to participate in a vacation care activity, they need to be enrolled in OOSH prior to their attendance. To enrol your child please call Jessica Azzi between 2:00pm and 6:00pm Monday to Wednesday or email Jessica or Frances Windon at ooshmail@ssc.nsw.edu.au

We look forward to seeing your child in vacation care.
