Hours of operation

The Centre operates from 8.00am to 5.45pm, Monday to Friday. The Centre is closed for 2 weeks over the Christmas holiday break.

During Intensive Schools, the Centre will be open from 8.00am to 5.45pm Saturdays and Sundays, depending on numbers.

Care for children is:

Full day care
8.00am - 5.45pm

Sessional care
Morning: 8.00am - 1.30pm
Afternoon: 1.30pm - 5.45pm

For the sake of the children in care and their program, a regular pattern of attendance should be adhered to.

Children who are brought in late in a session may miss out on particularly enjoyable indoor or outdoor activities. It is very unsettling for some children to be brought in at packing up or transition times. Please consult the daily timetables in each room to avoid disruption to your child and the remainder of the group of children.

Priority of access guidelines

The Commonwealth has determined priority of access guidelines for day care centres. These guidelines embody the principles and philosophy underlying the Commonwealth's involvement in child care and assist the Commonwealth in achieving the objectives of the Services for Families with Children Program by providing priority of access to particular people.
