Milton Outside School
Hours Care (MOSHC) is a not-for-profit, school-aged care service licensed by
the Milton State School P&C Association.
MOSHC offers before and after school care and vacation care for grades
prep to six. Our operating hours are:
Before School Care: 7:00am –
9am
After
School Care: 3:00pm - 6:00pm

MOSHC offers a
variety of supervised activities such as story time, art, craft, games, music,
gardening, LEGO, home corner, digital media and outdoor activities. We encourage children to engage in
unstructured, free play if they choose.
We also provide areas for children to withdraw from activities to read,
complete homework or just unwind.
Our aim is to provide
developmentally appropriate activities that develop each child’s social,
emotional, physical, intellectual and creative potential. Some of the highlights of the program include
role-play games, MOSHC Radio, LEGO Land, Natures Corner (garden area), film
making and MOSHC Markets. There are
always art and craft activities available, as well as a chance to be active in
one of our outdoor or undercover areas.
MOSHC staff work
collaboratively with children and families to develop a program that is
responsive to their needs and interests.
We seek to foster self-esteem and confidence in children by including
their own ideas in the planning of activities and providing experiences that
encourage them to negotiate and cooperate in small groups.
School-aged care
provides a unique opportunity for children to develop life-skills and to engage
in free, unstructured play.
Child-initiated experiences and collaborations occur on a daily basis
with a range of interesting projects, activities and experiences.
