Our Facilities
Under our Licensing approval with the Office of Early Childhood Education and Care – we are licensed to operate in the following areas of the school. We primarily use the Junior School areas, however do venture to the Senior School on occasion.
Junior School Hall
Children have access to several programmed activities and play opportunities to engage in throughout the day. We offer craft, construction and dramatic play in the hall, along with a quiet space for children to enjoy. We provide a variety of resources, including loose parts, and let the children's creativity and individuality flow.
Kitchen
Our kitchen is used to prepare healthy and exciting options for breakfast and afternoon tea. This is a great space for us to share cooking experiences with the children. Sweet, savoury, hot and cold, we love exploring different recipes with our little master chefs.
Music Room
Aptly named, the music room is where we enjoy a variety of dance games, music games and other more relaxing activities. You will find children in this space watching movies in vacation care or busting out a move during after school care.
Senior Playground
Our Seniors (Year 3 and up - as per school rules) have the opportunity to use this large climbing frame for their play. Our little monkeys enjoy climbing to the top and chilling out with their friends. It is a space that is always used.
Junior Playground
Our Juniors (Prep-Year 2) enjoy using this space in a variety of different ways. Some days it becomes a ninja warrior course and other days a gymnastics arena. The children use the surrounding area to play small ball games, including handball.
Prep Playground
Our prep children have the opportunity to play on our designated prep playground equipment located in front of our main door. This area provides preps with their own space to explore without the larger children dominating the area.
Sandpit
All children have the opportunity to enjoy the sensory benefits of having sand between their toes at After School Care. The children enjoy large digging holes, making sand pies and burying one another in the sandpit.
Undercroft
The undercroft is a fantastic multipurpose space, we use this space for programmed activities like dodgeball as well as a space for groups to initiate their own games.
Oval
We have programmed outdoor activities on the oval such as soccer, cricket and hockey. We also have a variety of sports equipment available at all times for children wanting to initiate a game of their own.
Circle Area
This area has two main purposes for our children - a chill out space or a ninja space. The children enjoy leaping between the circles, trying very hard not to hit the ground and using the circles as seating to engage in conversations with their friends.
OSHC Garden
The OSHC garden is slowly but surely coming to life. Zane runs gardening club here at OSHC on a weekly basis and has worked with the kids to create a fantastic garden that is growing fruits and vegetables that we can use in our menu and cooking here at OSHC.
