**About Ourplace**

The purpose of our Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) program is to provide a safe and enjoyable place for children to be when they need to be cared for outside of the College's core hours of operation.

The service is twofold in that it aims to serve children in our community by providing a safe place where children can opt to work, rest or play in which the values align completely with Sheldon College. Secondly, the service is for the parents who require care for their children in a context that is a continuation of the children's day and one that is within the College grounds.

The three services offered at "Our Place" OSHC for students in Preparatory onwards, from 6:30am to 6:15pm, are:

- Before College Care
- After College Care
- Vacation Care (including Student Free Day Care)

During Vacation Care periods we offer a wide variety of exciting and educational activities from 6:30am to 6:15pm daily, such as arts, crafts, cooking, indoor and outdoor play.
