The Y NSW provides Before and After School Care for more than 10,000 children across NSW.
We create a fun, safe and inclusive environment where children can make new friends and build confidence outside of the classroom. Our focus is on providing an enriching and engaging place for children to have inspired minds and active bodies.
Every day is a different opportunity for children to learn something new! Our experienced Educators tailor programs for each child’s interests and ideas using the My Time Our Place framework. This nationally approved evidence-based framework emphasises the benefits of providing children with a broad range of opportunities to participate in a variety of leisure and play-based activities.
Depending on their interests, they may engage in:
• Arts and crafts
• Cooking
• Drama, dance and music
• Quiet reading and games area
• Sports
• Group games
• Leisure and more.
Please note, quiet space is provided for children who wish to use their time to complete homework, however Educators are unable to offer individual help as they need to supervise all children.
We understand that an organised and well-resourced environment promotes individual and collaborative play and development. We ensure thoughtful and sufficient play resources and equipment are provided for a range of activities and programs, fostering holistic and varied education and care experiences for the children.
Children should bring a hat, a water bottle and all food required for the day. Children should also bring any personal items to support their individual care needs (e.g. medication or change of clothes).
Before School Care: We help children get ready for the school day by serving a nutritious breakfast and providing a range of engaging activities.
Before School Care is offered from 7am to 9am.
After School Care: Once the school day is done, we help children wind down. We offer a nutritious afternoon tea and a mix of activities where children can socialise, increase their skills, build knowledge and broaden their horizons.
After School Care is offered from 3.30pm to 6pm.
