After School Care:

Operating Hours: Monday- Friday, 3pm to 6:30pm (usually back at the centre by 3:30pm depending on the school they attend)

At Shiny Star Play Centre we also offer After School Care Program. This consists of a School Pick up service where an Educator will come and greet the children at the school and wait for our bus to pick them up, ensuring constant supervision from when they leave the classroom. At the different schools we have designated meeting points for the children.

Once they arrive back at the Play Centre, the children are given the opportunity to conduct themselves in Free Play in the playgrounds, playing with friends from their schools or other schools. Once all the children have arrived back, we have Afternoon Tea. We have a menu that consists of Healthy Eating Alternatives plus also food the children will eat and enjoy. They are asked to wash their hands which help hygiene and extend on their own self help skills. After afternoon tea the children are given the opportunity to complete their Homework and Home Reading plus any other tasks they need to complete at school. From there the children will break off into the After School Care Activities.

Extra Curricular Activities:

At Shiny Star Play Centre After School Care, we provide Extra Curricular Activities for the children to enjoy in their After School hours. These activities start at 4pm and run for approximately 1 hour, finishing at 5pm.
