Out of School Hours Care (OSHC)
The WESS P&C Association provides Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) and Vacation Care for primary school‑aged children, including Prep. Our programs offer a safe, inclusive and engaging environment that supports children’s social, emotional and physical development.
Services operate before school, after school, and during Vacation Care and Pupil‑Free Days, subject to sufficient bookings.
Meals and snacks are provided, and children are encouraged to participate in a wide range of activities, including sport, creative experiences and cooking. During Vacation Care, excursions or incursions may be offered at a small additional cost.

Our Philosophy
We value each child as a unique individual and respect the needs and circumstances of every family. Our aim is to create a warm, welcoming environment that nurtures children’s growth and development.
Children are encouraged to develop socially, physically and emotionally through age‑appropriate, stimulating activities and play‑based experiences. Our programs celebrate cultural diversity, promote gender equity, and support positive relationships.
Extra-Curricular Activities at OHSC
Children attending OSHC who have provided written parent/carer permission to participate in on-site extra-curricular activities (such as tennis or swimming) may attend these activities during their OSHC session.
The responsibility for collecting children from OSHC and escorting them to the extra-curricular activity, as well as returning them to OSHC after the activity, rests with the activity provider or the teacher/person in charge of the activity. OSHC staff are not responsible for transporting or escorting children to and from these activities.
