Holiday Care

About the Holiday Care Program

Excursions and centre based programs are developed to meet the wide developmental and interest ranges of children who attend. Not all activities will suit all children. Please consider the appropriateness of each excursion for your child. It is not expected that all children would participate in all excursions.

Excursions do not need to be booked separately as this can be decided on the day of care (except where noted in the schedule).

Breakfast/morning tea and afternoon tea are included in our daily fee.

Easter Holiday care is available from Monday 3 to Thursday 6 April & Tuesday 11 – Friday 14 April 2023

WSACC is closed for the Easter long weekend (Friday 7 to Monday 10 April inclusive)

Holiday care hours are from 6:00am to 6pm

Centre Activities

The following activities run at WSACC during the holiday period.

Prep Children

Consideration will be taken in programming for new prep children allocating educators to orientate and provide support to their growing confidence in the centre as well as the demands of a holiday care day on their energy levels. A range of quieter activities with prep children in mind will be facilitated throughout the holiday care program. Please provide us enough time to enrol and plan for new children attending for the first time.

Holiday Care Booking Conditions

Bookings may be received at WSACC by email or booking online.

Any booking which is received is deemed to be confirmed upon receipt of the booking enquiry. There will be no further correspondence unless the booking cannot be confirmed. In the unlikely event of a booking being unable to be confirmed, WSACC staff will contact you.

Bookings from one holiday period to the next are not automatically transferred. Each holiday period requires a new booking for each child wishing to attend.

Holiday Care Cancellation Policy

A booking cancelled up to 48 hours prior to the care date will incur a half day care fee ($23.50).

A booking cancelled within 48 hours prior to the care date will incur the full day care fee of $47.00

Early Bird Bookings

Bookings for holiday care received prior to the last Thursday of each school term will be charged our ‘Early Bird’ fee of $45 per day per child.

Bookings received after the last Thursday of each school term will be charged our standard daily fee of $50 per child per day.

Bookings are essential for all care. Care for a child without a booking will be charged our casual day fee of $60 per day per child. Please call WSACC prior to attending to avoid this fee.
