- Before the first booking
- Online enrolment approval is required before attending. Current school page and newer handbook point to Xplor. Legacy My Family Lounge instructions remain published, including in later handbook wording; ask which account and booking channel to use. Direct contact: 0412 265 399; 1938_oshc@eq.edu.au.
- Published care hours
- BSC 06:15–09:00; ASC 15:00–18:00; vacation care and pupil-free days 06:15–18:00. Explicit weekday mapping was not established, so no weekly schedule is inferred.
- Calendar and session limits
- School page says vacation care runs during school holidays except Christmas/New Year closure (dates announced yearly), opens Ekka Show holiday and closes Ipswich Show holiday and the October holiday labelled Queen's Birthday. Ask for the current holiday program and public-holiday schedule.
- Notice / lead time
- Handbook fee table: casual BSC before 08:00 on the day, ASC before 14:30; casual vacation care 24 hours' notice. Other published handbook wording says ASC 14:00 and a ten-week booking horizon. Confirm the applicable cutoff.
- Fee information · AUD
- Handbook fee table, valid from 1 October 2024: casual BSC $21.90; casual ASC $28.18; casual vacation/pupil-free day $62.60 plus applicable incursion cost. These are dated published fees, not a current quote.
- Cancellation / absence terms
- Handbook fee table allows casual cancellation with at least 24 hours' notice; late cancellation attracts the session fee and vacation-care incursion fee where applicable. A separate legacy policy says vacation-care changes must precede the holiday-program closing date by a week; confirm current terms.
- Published subsidy statement
- School says reduced fees require CCS registration; eligibility and the amount remain family-specific and unverified.
