Out of school hours care (OSHC)
Burton Primary School OSHC is a service dedicated to providing local families with quality care which is accessible and supportive. We aim to provide a fun, nurturing, stimulating and educational environment in which children’s leisure time is supported through fun, flexible programs that meet their needs.
Our out of school hours care (OSHC) service is operated by our school’s Governing Council. It’s available for children aged 4 to 13 for before and after school, pupil free days and school holidays. Our service follows the National Quality Framework (NQF) and is responsive to each child’s needs.
At OSHC, the children have the opportunity to interact with their friends, learn life skills, solve problems and explore. Some activities provided at our service are:
- arts, crafts, STEM and cooking
- outdoor games and gardening
- excursions & incursions (for vacation care).
Children are offered breakfast and an afternoon snack. During vacation care please provide recess and lunch.
