Our Programs
Here at Beyond OSHC, we offer a child-centred program designed to provide stimulating, engaging learning experiences that reflect children’s interests and support their skill development. Our program is completed weekly, providing various components to allow for a new experience everyday. Our program is available for viewing in the centre on our programming board and/or via our OWNA app.
Our Sessions
Before School Sessions
During the morning sessions, children are encouraged to settle in at their own pace and engage independently with a variety of thoughtfully prepared resources and activities.
A breakfast table is available each morning, offering children the opportunity to enjoy a nutritious meal and socialise with their peers before the school day begins. Educators also facilitate optional group activities to promote connection, cooperation, and positive relationships.
Our experienced and caring educators then ensure children are safely transported to school via our centre buses, supporting a calm and organised transition into the school day.
After School Sessions
At Beyond OSHC, our after school sessions provide children with a relaxed and welcoming environment to unwind after their school day.
Children are safely collected from school by our educators and transported back to the centre via our buses. Upon arrival, children have access to a table with fresh fruit and water, allowing them to refresh and rehydrate. Afternoon tea is then provided as part of our routine.
Educators support children to engage in a range of activities based on their interests and energy levels. Both independent and group experiences are offered, encouraging social interaction, creativity, and collaboration while also allowing children the space to rest and recharge.
Our program supports children’s well-being, builds positive relationships, and provides a smooth transition from school to home.
Vacation Care Sessions
At Beyond OSHC, we offer a fun, engaging, and inclusive Vacation Care program designed to support children of all ages and abilities. Our program is thoughtfully planned to reflect children’s interests while encouraging social development, confidence, and positive relationships.

Our centre operates from 6:00am to 6:00pm, providing families with flexible care options.
