Brockman House Inc. provides After School Care pickups from the following schools:
- Beechboro Primary School
- West Beechboro Primary School
- East Beechboro Primary School
- Good Shepherd Catholic Primary School
Parents will be notified of the school pickups points when their child is enrolled.
The After School Care program is child directed. Children have access to all arts & crafts; technology including computers, internet and playstation; construction opportunities including woodwork, sewing, soldering; dance & drama; nature & science; physical play esp. outdoor games including having available an undercover outdoor area. Children may also walk down to the local park to play if they wish, and will be accompanied by a Qualified Playleader. The activities and play is entirely up to the children and will be facilitated by our Playleaders if necessary.
Children also plan their afternoon menu and are assisted by staff in making it, if they request it. This forms part of our policy to help children be independent and gives opportunities to talk about making healthy choices in what we eat. Often children will look a recipe up on the internet and go about making it with their friends. Fruit is always available.
After School Care is open until 6.00pm. We request that parents pick their children up by 5.50pm to enable staff to close and lock up the building by 6pm. Late fees apply. See the Parents Handbook or call Reception. We love to hear from parents and caregivers. If you’d like to give us feedback, please contact the OSHC Staff Team on 9279-1588.
