Due to increases in running costs, Avalon School OOSH will need to increase session fees at the end of the financial year. Looking back, We have not not had a fee increase for over five years.

From the start of July, the Vacation Care daily fee will increase to $75 per day.  We feel that this is comparable with other centres where a daily rate is charged and a further fee is added for incursions, excursions and other activities to cover costs. Our fee is and will remain inclusive of all activities.  When broken down this would still equate to less than $7.50 per hour.

At the beginning of  term 3, our After School Care fee will increase to $25 per session. Before School Care will remain unchanged at $15 per session until 2023.

These fees will continue to be subsidised under Child Care Subsidy.
The Government $500 BASC vouchers are also available to all Families via Service NSW.

We welcome any Parent feedback on this proposed increase. Please send all correspondence to: [email protected]

Kind regards,

Avalon School OOSH

Once again thank you to everyone who attended our Parents night last Thursday evening.

We would like to invite all parents to attend our first Committee Meeting next Tuesday at 6.30pm. We usually keep our meetings pretty short and sweet as we do understand that coming out to a meeting after working all day is not everyones cup of
tea, however perhaps a glass of wine and some nibbles could entice you. In future we will conduct our committee meeting the week before the P & C meeting so we can tender our report.

We really need parental support to run the centre as decisions made by us are based on your needs, making your input very welcome.

Could everyone please, please, please check lost property from the school holidays. All school clothing left at the end of term has been taken to the school lost property. There is still a lot left over from the school holidays. We will be disposing of it all on Friday 13th if not collected.

Thanks everyone, have a great weekend and Happy Mothers day to all our Mums, Nanas, Aunties, Stepmums and “other mothers” we are all lucky enough to have. We hope you all enjoy your cold cups of tea and soggy toast.
