Out of school hours care

​

Helping Hands Network before and after school programs 

Helping Hands Network’s Rise then Shine before school program and Stay and Play after school program are based on research and designed to facilitate play. Their programs provide children with opportunities for experimentation, imagination, and freedom of expression! 
 
Before and after a structured day at school, it’s important for children to have the chance to relax and participate in activities they enjoy. Every child has their own idea of what’s fun, so Helping Hands Network offer a wide range of engaging activities during Before and After School Care (Rise then Shine and Stay and Play programs) to accommodate every child’s desire. 
 
While Helping Hands Network still offer all the usual fun activities and clubs, they also have 7 adventure categories! Each adventure category gives children the opportunity to develop life skills and explore their interests through specially designed experiences and activities.

Child Care Subsidy (CCS)

Did you know that our before school, after school and holiday programs are eligible for the Child Care Subsidy (CCS)? 

Since 10 July 2023, childcare fees are cheaper for most families and more parents can access the CCS if your family earns under $530,000 per annum. On average Helping Hands Network families get a 86%* rebate on eligible session fees. 

*Based on Australian average household income and average session fee
CCS is eligible on both Helping Hands Network incursions and excursions during Holiday Programs too. 
 
Learn more about the Child Care Subsidy on the Helping Hands Network website.

Helping Hands Network Holiday Program

Holiday HQ is the ultimate destination for kids looking for an unforgettable break from the school routine. From exciting soccer and football competitions to cooking classes – their expert educators provide a dynamic blend of engaging activities and enriching experiences. 
 
In addition, guest visitors and excursions add variety for your child during the holidays so no two days are the same. One day might be a coding specialist visiting the school, the next day might be a trip to the local bowling alley. 

They also ensure that every child’s holiday is not just entertaining but an opportunity for growth. Kids build new friendships, explore their interests, and return to school with unforgettable memories.
