BOOKINGS
Please ensure that booking forms are sent back to us as soon as possible to
secure your child/rens booking. If bookings are made after Thursday the 24th
June (Week 9) there will be a late booking fee. Please contact us to make sure
we still have availability, particularly for excursion days. Please take note that all
bookings are to be either paper based or via the Weebly website. Kidsxap
bookings will not be used over the Vacation Care period.

Please also remember that any days your child/ren are booked in and don’t
attend, you will be charged as an absent and the normal daily fee will be
charged. If it is an excursion day you will still be charged as an absent unless we
are able to replace your booking (you will be informed on whether or not we
were able to replace your booking). Again, bookings after Thursday the 24th
June (Week 9) will incur late fees.

BREAKFAST
As usual breakfast will be provided at OSHC between the hours of 7am and 8am.
If your child arrives after 8am we will be unable to provide them with breakfast.
When dropping your child off please let an Educator know if they require
breakfast so we can ensure they eat. We offer a range of yoghurts, fruits and
cereals.

RECESS & LUNCHES
In Vacation Care we like to encourage healthy eating. If you choose to send
your child with a treat for lunch like a cup of noodles or heat up meals, please
ensure it is labelled and in a throw away or reusable container that can be
returned home. Please take note of the days your children need to bring a
packed lunch as we are unable to heat lunches on excursion days. Your child
must have an adequately packed recess and lunch, a labelled drink bottle with
water each day unless otherwise advised. Please remember that if you do not
provide your child/ren with Recess ($2) or Lunch ($3) there will be a fee charged
to your account. *If this becomes a regular occurrence you will be contacted by
either the Director or Assistant Director for further discussion. All children must
bring a water bottle on excursions and if one is not brought from home, a water
bottle will be supplied and a charge of $2 will apply.

LATE PICK UP
Our service closes at 6pm each night. If for some reason you cannot collect or
arrange for your child/ren to be picked up by that time, please phone us on
(08) 8254 5827 and advise us as soon as possible. Late fees will apply.

BELONGINGS
Please remember to label all of your child’s belongings when coming to
Vacation Care i.e. hats, drink bottles, lunch boxes and jumpers. We have had a
large number of items that have been left behind from previous Vacation Cares
that have been unnamed and we have been unable to find their owners. Please
remember to check that your child has all of their belongings when leaving at
the end of the day. If you have lost something, please check our lost property
rack to see if your belongings are on there.
Please ensure each child has their own individual back pack each day, a
wheelie/side bags and sharing bags are not appropriate for excursions. We
recommend that you supply your child/ren a change of clothes in case of any
accidents or messy activities.

WHAT TO BRING
As Vacation Care begins please encourage your child/ren to read the program
and the “What to Bring” section on a daily basis when attending. There will be
day’s where your child/ren will be required to bring in different items, whether
it be for a dress up day, for a craft that we will be doing, or it may be that they
need to wear the appropriate shoes or attire for the day. If your child/ren
doesn’t have these items, it will compromise their participation on the day as
we won’t have the supplies to cover them not bringing the requested item.

NO ELECTRONICS SYMBOL
          You will notice on the program we have stated a couple of
          “Electronic Free Days”. We ask that your child/ren don’t bring
          electronics on these days, however if they happen to make their
          way to OSHC they will be locked away in the office until your
          child/ren are collected.

YELLOW T-SHIRTS
                We will be wearing yellow T-shirts on some Vacation Care
                excursions (symbol to identify when a yellow t-shirt is required).
                We encourage children to wear their own yellow T-shirt otherwise
                they will be supplied with one if required. This is to make it easier
for educators to tell which children are ours at a quick glance when we’re on an
excursion. This means they need to be worn on the outside of the rest of their
clothes. If it is cold the children are more than welcome to wear a yellow jacket
or jumper.

EXCURSIONS & INHOUSE ACTIVITIES
As you can imagine, excursion days are extremely busy. If your child/ren are
booked in on an excursion day, please ensure you are here by the requested
time so that we have time to organise all the children. Some excursions require
additional items, reading the ‘what to bring’ on the program for that day will
ensure your child doesn’t miss out. For information about the excursions, please
refer to the consent information for everything you need to know.
*Activity Charges will be added to your account, there is no need to bring in cash
on the day.
