The provider is an exclusive OSHC provider which offers before and after school care as well as vacation care.What is the history of Cubby OOSH
Cubby is independently and privately owned and was founded in 1984. More recently, Cubby has undertaken a major investment in its people, programs, and community engagement channels following a change of management to a team with a proven record of operating Exceeding-rated early and middle childhood education services.
What is Cubby OOSH’s vision and approach to outside school hours care?
Cubby has a vision to raise the bar of the OSHC sector “so that all students can be assured of consistent quality.”
The organisation employs a four-tier approach to programming which is designed to ensure active, engaging, fun and inclusive options are available, and which also responds to the preferences of students and parents, and compliments the schools own philosophy.
Every Cubby service sets up daily activities and resources under five ‘Cubby Activity Station’ headings:
- Physical,
- Creative,
- Team,
- STEM, and
- Chill
For students who want something different there is a well-stocked suite of games, equipment and resources available at every service and educators encourage students to follow their interests and create.
