Child Care Subsidy With Camp Australia
The government offers assistance to help with the cost of approved childcare. CCS is paid directly to Camp Australia to reduce the fees you pay before you are billed. The amount you get depends on your family’s income, the type of childcare you use and the hours you and your partner work and other recognised activities that improve your skills.
Lunchbox Inspiration
Bring back their appetite with new school lunch ideas for Term 1! We thought you may need a bit of inspiration as you head into the new school year. Here at Camp Australia, we’re all for healthy eating and making lunches fun and enjoyable for children. Cooking is one of the favourite activities children enjoy at Your OSHC. They love to get hands-on and whip up a range of foods that are yummy, healthy and easy to make!
