What to Expect at YMCA OSHC
As a community-based not-for-profit, the Y is recognised as a leading provider of OSHC services in South Australia, well known for:
Service Enrolment
Before your child can be booked into, or attend, any Vacation Care sessions they must be enrolled into the ANSS OSHC service.
Service enrollment is only needed once; there is no need to repeat a service enrolment for subsequent terms/years.
New enrolments are currently closed for October 2024 Vacation Care, however enrolments for December/January Vacation Care are open. Please contact oshc@ymcasa.org.au or 08 8200 2516 for an enrolment form.
Vacation Care
Our Vacation Care programs encourage children to be involved in a variety of fun and exciting activities, including art, craft, cooking, sport, dance, and drama. Children also go on excursions to exciting destinations. All bookings will be open once the program is released, which is on Monday week six of every term.
We will be closed from Monday 22 December to Friday 2 January inclusive. We will re-open on Monday 5 January 2026.
Fees
YMCA South Australia in partnership with the School Council sets the daily fee on an annual basis.
Our fees are broken into two components: the session fee, and an Additional Support Fee.
If eligible, families can use their Childcare Subsidy (CCS) towards their OSHC session fees. The session fee is payable by families only and NDIS cannot be used.
The Additional Support Fee can be claimed under NDIS. If you have a Plan Manager, you can provide us with their details, and we will send your account directly to them. Please ensure that you have sufficient funds in your plan. When reviewing your plan, please refer to the funding for holiday programs to foster accessing the community, social and civic engagement.
Families can also choose not to use NDIS and pay for the Additional Support Fee themselves.
