OSHC and VAC Care 2019

From the start of the 2019 school year  Immanuel will be operating our own OSHC and Vac Care. We thank Camp Australia for the provision of their service for many years but we have taken on board the feedback given to us and so will be operating our own service from Tuesday 29 January. Current arrangements for the 2018/19 Vac Care through Camp Australia will continue.

We will provide updates to our community on the details of this in the coming weeks, but we can let you know that we now have accreditation to operate and our Director will be Mrs Katrina Ponte (who has done a considerable amount of teaching at Immanuel this year and will be well known to our students.) We will also be using a new space and details will be uploaded to our website soon.
