Out of School Care (OSHC)
Theircare
Our school has partnered with an independent provider called TheirCare to provide exceptional Outside School Hours Care services for our school community.
The program is available for all children at Lockington Consolidated School from 7:00am until 8:45am in the morning and from 3:25pm until 6:00pm each school day.
During Pupil Free Days the service will operate, providing a minimum of 6 students are enrolled in the program from 7:00am until 6:00pm.
Families wishing to use this service can visit the TheirCare website: www.theircare.com.au
Families are eligible for a Government Rebate called the Child Care Subsidy which can reduce the cost per session by up to 90%.
More information can be obtained by contacting TheirCare on 1300 072 410.
TheirCare provides a stimulating and safe environment for all children. During sessions, children develop life-skills, friendships, confidence and creativity through play-based programs.
Child Care Subsidy (CCS) helps families with the costs of OSHC. Families must meet eligibility criteria to get CCS. The amount of CCS a family can get depends on their income and circumstances
