OSHC PROGRAMS & ACTIVITIES

Our experienced OSHC educators create engaging and varied activities for every before and after school session, incorporating input from students, parents, and caregivers on programming, menus, incursions, and excursions. Balancing planned activities with free play, we empower children to choose what interests them, explore new experiences, and participate at their own pace. Whether joining group activities, reading quietly, chatting with friends, or simply relaxing, children are encouraged to take ownership of their OSHC experience in a comfortable, welcoming community.

YMCA OSHC SCHOOL PARTNERSHIP
Our OSHC program’s success and popularity are made possible through collaborative partnerships with schools. YMCA works closely with your school to ensure the best outcomes for students, parents and the school community.
