Outside school hours care

Many schools offer outside school hours care, before and after school and school holiday programs. All children who are eligible to attend a primary school, including those enrolled in the Prep Year, are eligible to be enrolled in outside school hours care. These services are organised and operated by Parents and Citizens' Associations, non-profit community groups and commercial providers. Contact your local school to determine if a service is available at your school.
