Introducing our Adventure Program

At Primary OSHCare, our before school care and after school care programs are not your ordinary Outside School Hours Care.

Our morning programs are now called ‘Rise Then Shine’, the perfect start to your child’s school day. We set the tone for a great day at school through an array of energising activities and some delicious and nutritious food. From delightful breakfast moments, to calming morning meditations, we ensure they step into school ready to embrace the day!

The fun continues after school at our ‘Stay and Play’ afternoon programs. Kids can dive into more fun activities, building lasting friendships and creating memories beyond the classroom, all before heading home for quality family time.

Our Before and After School Care Adventures

The Adventure Program comprises of seven action-packed adventure categories. Backed by research into child development, and created in partnership with experts, the Adventure Program provides children with the opportunity to learn essential life skills and have great fun exploring their interests.

Each adventure category gives children the opportunity to develop life skills and explore their interests, all while having fun and creating friendships for life.

Let kids’ imaginations run wild as they unlock new skills with a range of activities packed with excitement. Whether it's whipping up tasty treats, getting sporty, or unwinding with yoga and mindfulness, our tailor-made adventures let kids do what they love and discover new interests!

Our adventure categories are specially created for children and the best part is that kids get to choose which adventure they would like to bring to life each day. Whether it's setting your child up for the school day ahead or helping them to unwind and connect with fellow kids and family after the last school bell rings, we think the will love going on an adventure with us.
