Brockman House Outside School Hours Care is not for profit, fully Accredited and Licensed for 39 children. The OSHC Centre offers a child centered safe and fun environment for children to relax and play both before and after school, and during holidays. OSHC has its own bus and driver, and services 4 local schools.
Focus
The focus in OSHC is upon child directed play and fun, supporting children’s development of their social skills, values, respect and problem solving abilities in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. The central theme here is that everything is always child directed, and one large part of achieving this is through weekly Children’s Meetings.
Bookings
Bookings for Before School Care and After School Care are taken during business hours however a booking is not a confirmation of your child’s place. Your child may be placed on a waiting list and until you have confirmation please don’t presume that your child will be in our care. Bookings for Vacation Care begin halfway through the school term. Unfortunately, due to limited places, not all families can be accommodated and Brockman House OSHC abides by the Federal Governments rulings on access to care. At risk children and children of working parents have priority, however social children are happily welcomed should there be places available.
Hours of Care
Brockman House OSHC is also open for pupil free days and early closings, although parents must inform the Centre prior to the day. Before School Care opens at 7.00am and the bus leaves Brockman House at 8.10am. After School care begins with children pickups at 3.00pm and closes at 6.00pm. Late fees apply if children are not picked up by this time.
