Rise and Shine
We kicked off the mornings this week by trying something new on the menu with freshly baked blueberry muffins. They were a sweet, fruity start to the day that had everyone asking for more! Our Morning Baking Club also kept things simple (and delicious) with easy sugar cookies that melted in our mouths!
Stay & Play
The afternoons this week brought even more tasty moments, with our menu highlight of the week: mini quiches! Packed with veggies and cheese, they were the perfect mix of healthy and hearty.
Tuesday Baking Club was a chocolate-lover’s dream with a decadent Oreo slice that disappeared almost as quickly as it was made. And to wrap things up in style, Friday’s Cultural Cooking Club took us to Italy with homemade pasta we rolled, shaped, attempted to cook the pasta! (even though the pasta didn't work as we hoped - we will definitely be revisiting out pasta making skills!)
Pupil Free Day Wrap-up
Our “Under the Stars” Pupil Free Day was truly out of this world! The children spent the day exploring the wonders of space through a range of exciting activities.
We kicked things off with moon craters and moon landers, testing our engineering skills to see whose design could withstand the most “lunar” challenges. Galactic Guardians brought an adventurous twist, while our collaborative galaxy mural filled the room with swirls of colour and imagination. To top it off, the children got creative with celestial comets, zooming them through the air in friendly competitions.
Of course, no space adventure is complete without snacks! Our budding astronauts headed to the kitchen to make cosmic coconut bites — delicious cookie-like treats that they decorated with their own starry designs.
It was a day packed with creativity, teamwork, and plenty of cosmic fun!
Family Suggestions
At OSHClub, we deeply value our families and community and would love to incorporate more family voices into our program. Whether it's a cherished family recipe we can cook together, a creative art activity, or any other idea, we would greatly appreciate your input!
Feel free to share your suggestions in our journal, located in the parent sign-in area, and we’ll do our best to bring them to life. Your contributions help make our program even more special!
Drop off/Pick up
Parents/ guardians are required to sign children in for Rise and Shine sessions and sign children out of Stay and Play sessions using the service iPad. Please ensure you are coming to the room when dropping your children to Rise then Shine or holiday program. Please do not let them walk by themselves.

A helpful video for navigating the iParent Portal and completing the enrolment process can be found on this page.

Bookings
Online bookings for Rise then Shine and Stay and Play sessions close 24 hours in advance. Online bookings for the Holiday Program and Curriculum Days close 5 days in advance.
If online bookings have closed, and you would like to make or cancel a booking, please SMS the program phone on 0427 144 945.
Cancellation of Bookings
IMPORTANT: If your child is booked in for an afternoon Stay and Play 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 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.
As you can imagine, this can be very stressful!
Thanks for your cooperation by notifying us of any Stay and Play absences.
