VACATION CARE
Vacation
Care is on again during the holidays. I am looking
forward to having the pleasure of your children’s company and
working with you to care for them.
New enrolments are welcome. Parents do not
have to be working for their children to attend. Vacation Care
is held in the Year 8/9 rooms at the school. Opening times are
from 8am to 6pm. Children from 4 to 15 can attend. When
enrolling for the program you will need a Customer Reference
Number (CRN) for the parent/caregiver and for your
child/children from the Family Assistance Office which links to
the Child Care Benefit (CCB) system. The daily fee is $40.00
for 10 hours of care or any part thereof. This amount can be
greatly reduced by registering and receiving CCB percentage.
Enquiries and telephone numbers to register for CCB can be done
online at www.familyassist.gov.au or telephone 13 61 50.
I have organised lots of fun cooking and
craft activities for the holidays. Activities
include outside play on the oval, playground, courtyard or in
the gym; a wide variety of art and craft activities; library
visits; cooking; Lego, board games, jigsaws etc; science
activities, dancing and listening to music; dress ups; DVD’S; 8
ball; puppet shows; and PS2 and computer games. We have
purchased some new Dvd’s and PS2 games (as well as some
donations) for the children to enjoy.
It is very important
that you send your
child along with a water bottle, hat, covered shoes, a healthy
lunch and snacks and preferably a bag to keep their
possessions/craft work in.
Please book your children in beforehand
rather than just turning up. As our numbers have increased so
much it is now imperative that you book your children in as we
will likely need to organise a second carer on some days.
Please
ring me on 86261631 or 0427618188 to make a booking.
