Before and After School Care
All Kindy to Year 6 students attending Santa Clara School is eligible to attend our OSHC program which includes before and after school in addition to vacation care provided by the school. Both programs offer a healthy breakfast and afternoon tea for all enrolled children.
Our Out of School Care provides a quality learning program based on the EYLF and My Time, Our Place. All Educators have current First Aid and Working with Children Checks.
Our service utilises XAP software for account registration and bookings. Please follow the link provided in the enrolment section below to complete a wait-list application. Once you have an active account, bookings can be made through the XAP – Smile app. Our educators also utilise the See-Saw program to share photos, updates, and weekly activity plans with families. Each child will receive a unique link to their account once they begin the service.
