We offer holiday programmes at 3 separate venues. Each programme is structured with many activities during the day to provide variety for the children.
We Are OSCAR Subsidy Approved!
Work and Income’s Out of School Care and Recreation (OSCAR) subsidy is a payment that helps you with the cost of before- and after-school care as well as the cost of school holiday programmes.
If you’re eligible, you can claim up to 20 hours per week for before and after-school care and up to 50 hours per week for school holiday programmes.
We’ll work with you and your local Work and Income office to make sure that the process of applying for and receiving an OSCAR subsidy is straightforward and stress-free.
