Shorehaven

During the school term, Keiki Shorehaven OSHC is open Monday to Friday, excluding public holidays. Our before school program is open for drop off from 6.30am – 8.30am, and our after-school program is from 2.40pm – 6:00pm. During the school holidays or school development days, our Vacation Care program is open from 6:30am – 6:00pm.

At Keiki Shorehaven OSHC, fees are charged per session rather than per day. This means you will only be billed for the specific sessions your child attends, such as a morning or afternoon session. Each morning session is charged at $36.50, and each afternoon session is charged at $47.50. During Vacation Care, we provide all inclusions for one daily flat fee of $119.50.

These fees are the full session rates and do not include any discounts you may be eligible for through the Child Care Subsidy (CCS). To estimate your out-of-pocket costs after CCS is applied, and to learn more about the subsidy, please visit the Child Care Subsidy page on the Services Australia website.

At Keiki Shorehaven, we welcome primary school-aged children from 3 to 12 years of age. Our program is designed to support children in this stage of development by offering a nurturing, engaging, and age-appropriate environment.

The centre features thoughtfully designed indoor and outdoor learning spaces tailored to the interests and needs of school-aged children. Each group is supported by dedicated educators who are experienced in working with this age range. Our focus is on supporting the transition into formal schooling and providing a space where children feel engaged, confident, and well-supported throughout their time with us.
