Program Aim and Philosophy
Communities@Work School Age Care Programs aim to provide environments where each child will feel safe and protected with opportunities to develop physically, socially and emotionally. Click here to read the full C@W Program Aim and Philosophy document.
Before School Care
Before school care operates from 7.30 am. The children enjoy a light breakfast and are supervised in a safe environment until their school day begins.
- 7.30 am – 9.00 am (not including school and public holidays)
After School Care
Our after school care programs operate during school terms from 3.00 pm to 6.00 pm daily. Each program differs in its operation by the nature of the environment and the number of children and staff. We provide the children with a nutritious afternoon tea each day and offer a range of games and activities to extend their leisure and social opportunities.
- 3.00 pm – 6.00 pm (not including school and public holidays)
Transport
Communities@Work has a 25-seater bus to provide transport for children to and from programs and on excursions. If you are looking for before or after school care in the Tuggeranong Valley, give us a call.
