As we wrap up another fantastic term, we want to take a moment to celebrate the highlights, share some important reminders, and express our gratitude for your continued support.
This term has been packed with exciting activities, learning experiences, and lots of fun! Some of our standout moments include:
Attending twilight sports and sharing Zooper Doopers with everyone!
The kids had a blast in our Cooking Club Challenge! Teams worked together to create delicious, nutritious dishes, and our little chefs showcased impressive skills. It was fantastic to see so much creativity and teamwork in action.
Our arts and crafts sessions this term have been full of wonderful creations. From painting to clay modeling, the children have truly embraced their creative sides!
Our Tuesday Sports Club introduced the kids to new games and skills, building teamwork and confidence while keeping active.
Upcoming holidays
We are filling up fast so please make sure you are booked in to secure your spot!
We’re gearing up for an exciting Easter Holiday Program , and we can’t wait to share all the fun we have planned! This holiday, our theme is GAME ZONE, where children will build, create, and play through a range of interactive and hands-on activities!
Some of the exciting experiences coming up include:
- Monopoly Dreams Melbourne - Excursion!
- Build Your Own Mini Dog Robot

Holiday Reminders
- Please ensure you have packed enough food for you child/children to eat morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea! The more the better! Do ensure you avoid brining nuts into the service as we are a no nut service! We do NOT provide breakfast on holidays.
Sun Smart Policy
As the weather warms up, our afternoon program begins to move outdoors more often. As school hats generally need to be kept in classroom tubs, please make sure your child has a spare sun smart hat for OSHClub in their school bag. We have Cancer Council and Coles sunscreen on hand but children are welcome to bring their own if they wish. Hats and sunscreen will be worn when the UV rating is at 3 or above.
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.
Enrolling Your Child

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.
