Making and doing @ OSHClub

Some great collaborative cubby making happened last week. Two groups of builders shared ideas and construction techniques to create The Vent of Mira HQ and The Littlest Library. Both cubbies were shared with, and enjoyed by, all the children.

Last week, we tried 3D modelling with air dry clay. Children experimented with different techniques, tools and materials, such as aluminium foil and wire to build their clay creation on, and modelling tools to sculpt and add detail. We can't wait to add more colour!

On the Planner this Week:

Outdoor cubby making

Making pikelets

Painting clay sculptures

Web Tiggy

Chess

Decoding challenges

And plenty of free play!

Parent Information

Drop off and Pick Up Procedure

When collecting or dropping off your child, please wait at the front gate and call the program phone on 0427 144 945. Either myself or Jess will come out and meet you there.

Cancellation of Bookings

IMPORTANT: If your child is booked in for an after school care 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 to 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 and will need to be referred to police.

As you can imagine, this can be very stressful!

Thanks for your cooperation by notifying us of any after school care absences moving forward.

Sun Smart Policy

All children must wear a sun smart hat during Term 4 when playing outdoors. Please make sure your child has a spare hat packed for when they attend. Spare hats can also be stored at OSHClub.

Children will be asked to apply sunscreen before going outdoors if the UV rating is above 3. We use Coles brand sunscreen at the service. If your child requires a specific brand of sunscreen, please make sure they have this packed in their bag for OSHClub.

Bookings

Online bookings for each session close 24 hours in advance.

If bookings have closed and you would like to make or cancel a booking, please SMS the program phone on 0427 144 945.
