OSHClub News
Week 3
What a fantastic week we've had at OSHClub! Our Breakfast Club kept everyone warm and energised with delicious berry smoothies, yoghurt cones, chocolate croissants, cheese toasties, and comforting honey porridge. Our Snack Squad was busy in the kitchen preparing tasty afternoon treats including noodles, spaghetti, pizza scrolls, butter potato curry with rice, and fluffy pancakes. It was wonderful to see the children building their cooking skills while enjoying the meals they chose together.
Creativity was on full display this week! Children challenged themselves by building LEGO global landmarks, creating unique clay masterpieces, constructing impressive cardboard buildings, completing colour-by-number artworks, making handprint art, painting seashells, and exploring the sensory fun of giant Orbeez. There was no shortage of movement and laughter as we enjoyed basketball, tennis, parachute games, soccer, goal shooting, Gaga Ball, plenty of group games, and lots of playground adventures with friends.
A special highlight of the week was Educators' Day. We were lucky enough to celebrate with a small party and felt so appreciated by all of your kind words and thoughtful gestures. Thank you to all our wonderful children, families, and school community for helping make the day so special. We are grateful for your ongoing support and love being part of your children's learning and play every day.
We can't wait to see everyone for another exciting week at OSHClub!

Accessing After hours
For the safety of all families, we ask that parents and carers enter and exit through the side pedestrian gate next to Reception when collecting children after hours, rather than through the reception area. This designated access point provides a safer route to the OSHC service and helps minimise the need for families to walk through areas that may not be supervised or accessible after school hours. Thank you for supporting our commitment to maintaining a safe environment for everyone.
Enrolling Your Child
For new enrolments, please go to https://www.oshclub.com.au/register/
A helpful video for navigating the iParent Portal and completing the enrolment process can be found on this page.
Please note: CRN numbers and all birth dates must be entered correctly if you wish to claim the Child Care Subsidy. CCS applications are submitted automatically to Centrelink when new enrolments are actioned.
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 3:25pm to avoid a non-notified absence fee of $20.00 per child.
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.
