Children are required to have a suitable sun hat during Term 1, 3 and 4 holiday programs for outdoor play, during the colder months we advise children to bring a jacket and/or hat. At all times children are required for their own safety to wear appropriate footwear (no thongs etc).
Food
Morning and afternoon tea are supplied in line with the healthy eating guidelines. Children are to bring their own lunch and drink bottle unless otherwise stated on the program or if the menu is not suitable. Please advise staff of any dietary requirements.
Behaviour
It is very helpful if you discuss appropriate behaviour with your child before they attend the program. Any behaviour that is seen as unacceptable will be recorded and parents will be informed at pick up time. We do reserve the right to remove a child from the program if behaviour is deemed to be putting other children or staff at risk. In this case parents would be contacted by phone to come and collect their child immediately.
We prefer expensive toys and games are not brought to the service and the service takes no responsibility for damage to these items.
Leaving and collecting children
Children must be signed in on arrival and signed out before leaving the service by a parent
Children will only be allowed to leave the service with adults listed on their enrolment form. If you want someone not listed to collect your child you must notify the service by phone/E-mail. If a child is still at the service after closing time every effort will be made to contact parents or emergency carers listed on the enrolment form.
Enrolment Procedures
An enrolment and registration form must be completed the first program after the start of the new school year (March/April), and then only a registration form listing the days required needs to be completed each program. Bookings will not be accepted without payment and a completed enrolment and/or registration form. Forms must be returned to the College by the closing date by mail or faxed to 9437 0728. Eftpos payments may be made by contacting reception on 9437 1421
