Abbotsford Community Centre

Abbotsford Community Centre is a dynamic out of school hours and vacation care service located on the grounds of Abbotsford Public School. The Centre provides a high-quality programme aimed at creating a supportive environment in which our children are able to explore, thrive and have fun! They are licensed to care for 150 children and use a 1:10 staff to child ratio.

Before School Care

BSC is open from 7 – 9 am. Breakfast is offered every morning and runs from 7 – 8:15 am. They run a morning activity, targeted at making connections and building social skills before the children head out the front to enjoy some outdoor time or relax indoors.

At 8:30 am, they sign out children with permission to leave earlier and at 8:45 am they all pack away and get their bags, ready to be taken to school by the Educators.

After School Care

ASC is open 3:00 – 6:30 pm during NSW school terms (excluding public holidays).

From 3:00 – 3:30 pm, children are signed in to ASC and served afternoon tea prepared by their dedicated Centre Cook. Their program hour runs from 3:45 - 5 pm, where the children are split into stage groups and engage in activities from sport to cooking to STEM that are planned by their Educators and Educational Leader on a weekly basis.

At 5 pm, children are served an afternoon tea snack and activities are packed away. Children engage in their own self-directed play and learning until 6 pm.

Vacation Care

Vacation care is open from 7 am  6:30 pm during NSW school holidays and pupil free days (excluding public holidays and two weeks over Christmas and New Years).

Vacation care adopts similar morning and afternoon routines to term time with a mix of incursions and excursions.

Places can be booked by picking up the form from the Centre and returning it with your desired days selected.

Centre Cook

The Centre is committed to serving meals that are both healthy and delicious with a menu that integrates the children’s opinions and balances food groups. Their Centre Cook, Andrea, focuses on a different area of nutrition each day of the week including protein, vegetarian meals, carbs and healthy fats and acids like omega-3.

The weekly menu is always posted on the board at the parent Sign-In area and is available on the website. They serve afternoon tea at 3 pm and 5 pm daily, where they always have plates of fruit and vegetables on offer.
