After School Care (Out of School Hours)

After School Care

The Scots College Out of School Hours (OOSH) aims to provide a safe, nurturing, stimulating and welcoming environment for school-age children. Our Centre offers experiences which reflect the children’s diversity, strengths, needs and interests. We support positive learning and leisure experiences, in a warm, fun and friendly atmosphere which will foster each child’s sense of self-worth, nurture positive group relationships and encourage cooperative and collaborative behaviour.

Hours of Operation

After School Care: 3:00pm to 6:00pm

Vacation Care: 7:00am to 6:00pm (Available at Oatley West OOSH and OOSH at SGCS)

Bookings

Permanent bookings
Children who are attending the program regularly on the same days are encouraged to make a permanent booking. This ensures that your child will continuously hold your desired pattern of attendance during the year.

Casual bookings
Children who do not attend the program on set days can book into the program on a casual basis. Casual bookings need to be made by 5:00pm on the day prior to care. This is to ensure the appropriate educator ratios are met. Casual bookings can be made either over the phone or in person. Phone 0455 053 801.

Vacation Care Program
The Vacation Care program is different from the After School Care program in many ways. It operates from 7:00am to 6:00pm and is planned to create a fun holiday atmosphere. This program offers an array of engaging crafts, cooking, construction, painting, games and other activities to capture the children’s energy. We attend regular outings that reflect normal children’s holiday wants, interests and habits.

Location

Since 1993, the Foundation has supported the continued advancement of The Scots College through financial support of its capital development and scholarship programs.

The Foundation’s ultimate objective is to provide the College with long-term financial security through establishing and maintaining an independent capital base. To achieve this, the Foundation provides for the sound administration of an ongoing philanthropic program.

Fees

Fees are charged based on the type of booking: permanent, casual or vacation care, and are paid fortnightly, two weeks in advance. More information will be provided upon booking.
