Out of School Hours

Care for children up to 13 years, usually within school grounds. Early drop-offs and late pick-ups are catered for.

Qualified care before and after school

Out of School Hours Care (OOSH) operates on school days for busy parents. Children simply go to school and remain under the care of a qualified educator until a guardian can collect them. The centres provide:

  • An interesting range of activities – including sports, art, craft, group games and quiet play
  • Safe, enjoyable atmosphere
  • Care that often exceeds the National Quality Standard 
  • High-quality educational programs
  • Focus on safety, health, and well-being of children with all activities

Where the service operates

Out of School Hours Care is usually held within school grounds. However, Council also operates some Out of School Hours services away from schools and provides transport from the centres to schools.
