Making and Doing at OSHClub
Last week we decided that we could do with a little magic, so we began making our own magic wands using bamboo chopsticks. This activity has involved plenty of patience and persistence and has lasted several days while we waited for the layers of paint and glitter to dry. Once finished, these will make great prompts for imaginary play, which is where the magic will really begin!
Extended After School Care session - Friday 25th June 2021
We are offering an extended After School Care session on Friday 25th June 2021.
The session will run from 2.30pm to 6.00pm at the cost of $34.00 (before any applicable Child Care Subsidy).
To book, please login to your online account to access the iParent Portal and select After School Care - Early Finish for Friday 25th June.

Vacation Care 28th June - 12th July
Bookings are now open for our Winter Vacation Care program. Sessions run from 7:00am - 6:00pm, Monday - Friday, at a cost of $64.00 before any applicable Child Care Subsidy is applied. Excursions and incursions involve an additional charge.

Parent Information
Enrolling Your Child
For new enrolments, please go to www.oshclub.com.au. There you will find the 'Register Your Child' tab under the 'Families' tab. This will take you to the iParent Portal account sign up page. Once signed up, search for Mount Pleasant Road OSHClub under the 'Find a Place' tab and follow the instructions. Once your enrolment is complete it will be forwarded to the service for review.
Drop off and Pick Up Procedure
Parents are welcome onsite to drop off and collect children from OSHClub.
As part of our COVID-19 risk management plan, an OSHClub staff member will continue to sign children in and out on the iPad until further notice.
Cancellation of Bookings
IMPORTANT: If your child is booked in for an after school care session and that booking is no longer required, please cancel the booking on the iParent Portal. If you are cancelling on the day, please contact us on the program phone before 3:15pm.
We are responsible for all children booked into our care. If a child does not arrive to after school care when booked in to attend, we will need to confirm the whereabouts of the child by contacting parents/guardians and emergency contacts. If we cannot successfully do this, it then becomes a missing child incident and will need to be referred to police.
As you can imagine, this can be very stressful!
Thanks for your cooperation by notifying us of any after school care absences moving forward.
