Friday 20th- Walk to School Day and Early Finish

Friday is Walk to School day! OSHC children who want to participate in walk to school are welcome to. Parents/guardians will need to sign a permission form authorising OSHC staff to sign their children out at 8:30 into the care of school teachers.  OSHC staff will then take the participating children to the school start point at 8:30.

OSHC will also be offering care from the end of school time (2:30pm) until our normal finish time (6pm). If you would like to book your child in, please contact OSHC to do so.

Spring Holiday Program

Our Spring Holiday Program will be operating from Monday 23rd September – Friday October 4th. We will be closed on the 27th of September due to the public holiday.  We will be open from 8:00 am – 5:30 pm each day at a cost of $60.00 per child per day (rebates available).  This cost includes activities, excursions, morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea.

Booking confirmations will be sent out by the end of today (Wednesday 18th Sept). If you have not received your booking confirmation by today, please email Briar at oshc@minersrestps.vic.edu.au

There are still places available, so we are still accepting bookings this week and throughout the holiday period.

A program with intended activities has been displayed around the school.  Please also feel free to email OSHC to get a copy.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Sun Smart in September

Thank you to OSHC children and families for being so amazing with their hats!

Sunscreen is now being used at OSHC.  If your child is sensitive to generic sunscreen, please feel free to send a personal bottle along for your child to use.  This can either be stored at OSHC or in your child’s bag.  If you would not like your child to wear sunscreen at all, please provide a written note to be added to their files.

Please note that, like any allergy, a sunscreen allergy requires a medical management plan from your child’s doctor explaining what to do in case they come in contact with sunscreen.  Medication listed on this plan will also need to be provided.

Thank you for your understanding!
