Out of Schools Hours Care (OOSH)

Staff changes

Jessica Fakhry is now on maternity leave. OOSH Administrator Frances Windon has moved into the position of OOSH Coordinator. Frances has worked at OOSH for several years and knows the staff, children and families well, so I’m confident that she’ll do well in this position. Frances will be working on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday until April 2025.

Last month, Sophie Harte permanently joined the OOSH team. Sophie has worked at Kids@Weldon for several years. Sophie will work alongside Alisa Spada during Before School Care, After School Care and Vacation Care as an educator. Sophie is very excited about being at SSC OOSH and we’re equally pleased to have her.

Vacation care

We’ve just finalised the April Vacation Care program and it’s packed with new and exciting incursions. We’ve included an incursion with after school activity Bricks4 Kids and other incursions were selected by the children from FUN Day Out. There’s certainly a STEM theme running through the program. Please see below for full information.

Booking for vacation care open on Monday 11 March. If you book before the end of term, you’ll pay the permanent vacation care daily fee of $80 per child plus incursion and excursion cost. If you book during the school holidays the daily fee is $82 per child.

If you would like your child to attend vacation care, please contact OOSH Coordinator Frances 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.
