Enrolment Instruction

Thank you for choosing YMCA Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) service for your child(ren). We feel honoured that you have chosen one of our centres for your child's out of school hours care.

At YMCA, we use a system called My Family Lounge to manage all outside school hours care enrolments.

We want to make sure your enrolment is as quick and smooth as possible, so please take a moment to read the information before you begin.

If you are enrolling for our new services at Gainsborough or Palmview we will require confirmation from the school that you are enrolled with them for 2021 before we can complete your enrolment.
