Out of School Hours Care (OOSH)

With the next school holidays just over four weeks away, we have planned a vacation care program that will excite and engage all children. The vacation care program begins on Thursday 6 April and ends on Monday 24 April. Vacation care is closed on public holidays.

The program begins with an Easter egg hunt with the children making their own baskets and searching for eggs and ends with a pyjama party with children coming in their pyjamas and dancing the day away. It’s then jam-packed with incursions that focus on science, technology, physical activity, and games. We’ve even included an excursion to the children’s favourite, Strathfield Park.

Bookings for vacation care are open now. If you book before the end of term, you will pay the permanent vacation care daily fee of $75 per child plus incursion and excursion cost. If you book during the school holidays the daily fee is $77 per child. Several families still have BASC Voucher credit that can be used to pay vacation care fees. BASC Voucher credits need to be spent by June 2023.

If you would like your child to attend vacation care, please contact OOSH Coordinator Jessica Azzi or OOSH Administrator Carmela Famularo at ooshmail@ssc.nsw.edu.au or call OOSH on 9745 7790 between 2:00pm and 6:00pm.

Vacation care is always an enjoyable experience for children. With a focus on leisure and fun children always make friends and come home with stories to tell about their day at OOSH.

We look forward to seeing your child at OOSH during the next school holidays,
