At Emmaus College OSHC, we provide a safe, inviting, exciting and comfortable environment for our children. We create a sense of ownership for families and children by encouraging all to contribute their ideas to the program. Our program encourages the development of life skills by enabling children to experience, practice and explore through play.
Emmaus OSHC values the diversity and needs of all families. At Emmaus OSHC we encourage children to make their own choices with a program that is based on their needs, interests and abilities.
Emmaus OSHC is approved for 105 children for before school, after school and vacation care.
