Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) – Provided by YMCA Ballarat

The OSHC team are set for another year of program packed fun at both Maddingley and Woodlea campuses.

Both programs support each students’ needs and interests and through the information provided from families on enrolment we are able to begin planning from each child’s first day of attendance. ‘My Time, Our Place’ Framework for School Age Care in Australia is the curriculum we implement, targeting five developmental outcomes; identity, community, well-being, learning and communication.

Our programs utilise indoor and outdoor spaces, along with a combination of flexible and structured components. Children are encouraged to make choices and decisions, approach new experiences with confidence while collaborating with peers and educators.

Age group: Prep to Year 6

After School Care Hours:  3.05pm – 6.30pm.

Vacation Care Hours (Operated at Woodlea campus only): 7.00am – 6.30pm. The 2021 Spring program is open for bookings.

Pupil free days: Running of the program is dependent on the number of bookings – families are encouraged to book early.
