Our Philosophy

This environment enables the children to learn new skills, build new friendships, and encourage positive attributes which assist with building self-esteem. Social skills are developed in a positive and exciting way, therefore, make Cranbourne OSHC a safe and happy place.

All families requiring Outside School Hours Care (including pupil-free days/ Curriculum days) must submit an OSHC Enrolment Form. We do not accept OSHC enrolments without an enrolment form.

 

 

 

Late Pick Up

If parents/guardians are unable to collect their child by the closing time, 6 pm, they need to call the service phone and let the educators know and organise another authorised person to collect their child/ren.  A late fee of $15 for every 15 minutes after 6 pm. It will be added to the nominated account.

 

 

Late booking/Cancelation

Late bookings fee of $4 will be imposed when booking/Cancellation happens within 24 hours before the session starts.

 

 

Non attendance/ Cancelation

Parents/guardians must book their child/ren into a session and make cancellations as necessary. You will be charged full fees if your child is booked in and no cancellation is made. Cancellations must be made 24 hours in advance before the session starts so we will have the appropriate number of staff to accommodate students, as well as enough breakfast and afternoon tea. If the booked session cancels within the 24 hours period a late cancellation fee of $4 will be applied to the account.
