Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) & Vacation Care

We are excited to partner with Tapping Primary School to deliver an outside school hours care and vacation care service on school grounds. Keiki Tapping provides school-aged children with comforting, stimulating and safe environments, staffed by passionate and experienced educators. We build close working relationships with teachers and staff, while creating a real sense of belonging for families through warm surroundings and strong links to the community. Keiki is ideally located at the heart of the Tapping Primary School grounds, with easy access from the administration building.

Before and After School Care

At Keiki Tapping, we offer a safe and secure fenced environment where children can socialise, play and interact with other children and educators outside of school hours. We focus on providing engaging before and after school activities, with a range of play-based environments for children to choose from.

Our outside school hours program complies with all state regulations, and we are committed to providing the highest quality care for school aged children in Western Australia. Children enjoy full use of the outdoor playground and other nearby school facilities. A daily Homework Club, sports activities and regular learning opportunities are planned as part of the program based on children’s input and interests.

Keiki Tapping’s before and after school care program is open every school day before school starts from 6:30am, with after school care running from the end of the school day until 6pm.
