It has been another action packed week at OSHC. Our Friendship day on Thursday was a great success, and it seemed to help develop connections between the Preps, and the older children.The children made Friendship bracelets, as well as developing their own games to play. Other popular activities have included active games such as cricket, tennis, basketball and line tigi. The children have also been enjoying decorating superhero masks, which then evolved into dramatic play, and getting a head start on their homework.
The children have been enjoying talking about their pets, and exchanging amusing stories about the antics their pets get up to. This has led into the decision to make up a photo wall for children to bring in a photo of their pet (or their favourite toy or an animal they would like to have as a pet).
OSHC at Drysdale Primary School operates out of the School Hall. We open at 7:00am each school day and send the children off at 8:45am, with the Prep students are being walked over to their classrooms by an educator for at least the first 6 weeks. At 3:30pm the children attending after school care walk over to the hall from their classrooms (once again Preps are picked up from their classrooms) and we provide a safe place for them to play and engage with other children until they are collected. Our closing time is 6:00pm. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to come and visit us at the service and ask one of our educators.
A friendly reminder for parents that for staffing and catering purposes children should be booked into OSHC through the Camp Australia Head Office, and should you need to cancel their booking please can this be done through head office as well. This works out much cheaper for you, as there are additional fees involved if children do not attend sessions they are booked in for. Bookings can be made or cancelled by logging into the Camp Australia website https://www.campaustralia.com.au or by ringing 1300 105 343. The team are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week (except National Public Holidays).
We hope to see you soon, from the Camp Australia Team.
