School Holiday Care Frequently Asked Questions
What should my child wear to the program?
Children are to wear comfortable clothing and are required for their own safety to wear appropriate footwear (no thongs). At times an activity may require children to wear specific clothing and this will be outlined on the program.
What should my child bring to the program?
Children are to bring morning tea, snacks, lunch and a drink bottle each day. We ask that nut products are not included in children’s lunch boxes during the program. A sun smart hat is required during the summer holiday program.
Is there a limit on how many children can attend per day?
Enrolments are capped at 33 children per day and a wait list will be compiled for enrolment requests where this cap has been reached. Families will be contacted directly should a place become available.
Can I cancel my booking or swap my day?
We require one day’s notice for any cancellations to provide reunds or credit. We are unable to swap booked day/s to alternate days.
Am I eligible for the Child Care Subsidy (CCS)?
ELTHAM College OSHC is an approved Child Care Subsidy (CCS) Service. The CCS is a government subsidy that offers different levels of financial assistance to Australian families to help cover the cost of childcare. It is available to eligible parents to help with the out-of-pocket expenses for students attending our programs. The CCS is paid directly to the service.
