A safe, and engaging place before and after the school bell.
Drummoyne / St Marks OSHC offers children a place where they feel safe, respected and supported beyond the school day. Our educators create a welcoming environment that values every child’s voice and rights, encouraging them to make choices and explore their interests. Whether it’s active play outdoors, creative arts, group games or quiet time to relax, children are given space to learn, connect and belong.
Experiences that grow confidence and friendships
Each session is thoughtfully planned to support children’s wellbeing, independence and social skills. With consistent, caring educators and a focus on inclusion, children build friendships and develop confidence through play and shared experiences. Families can feel reassured knowing their child is part of a program that celebrates individuality while nurturing respect, care and curiosity in every activity.
This is a shared program between Drummoyne Public School and St Marks Catholic Primary School.
Gowrie NSW runs OSHC at St Marks on Mondays and Fridays.
OSHC at Drummoyne sessions are held Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
Children from both schools are welcomed at both locations, and are supported in the transition between the two schools, every day.
