The Rainbow Children’s Centre Inc.

Welcome back to Central Ballina Vacation Care

Ballina Public School 8am -6pm.IMPORTANT; While we try to be as flexible and accommodating to families needs as

we can, No bookings will be taken after the cutoff date, Friday 31 st

March 2017 We want vacation care to be a fun and safe place for your child/ren to attend we will not

tolerate any antisocial behaviors (ie fighting, swearing and bullying) we will give one written warning if the behavior continues you and your child will have to meet with me

(Leonie Crowe OOSHC Co-ordinator) to discuss why your child should remain enrolled in our vacation care program.

April vacation care should be a busy fun time. We remind Parents/Carers that you need to send your child/ren with enough food to last them the whole day. We do offer some extra cooking activities and some afternoon teas these are an extra not a replacement of your

child’s daily meals. Children need a balanced and nutritional diet to grow and play

Excursion Day: All families need to sign in and fill in the risk assessment form with contact details this for the safety of your child/ren failure to fill in these forms will mean

your child/ren cannot attend the excursion!If any families have any hidden talents and would like to come share these with us we

would love to have you.

POLICY….Rainbow has multimedia policy, we recognize that multimedia hand held devices such as

iPods and iPads are a large part of most children’s worlds. Whilst at vacation care we have limited the use of hand held devices to one hour in the morning and one hour in the afternoons or for longer bus trips. We will not tolerate any negative or inappropriate

outcomes from children using these devises whilst at Rainbow, we reserve the right to confiscate any child’s device if they are using it in a negative or inappropriate way and

return it to the family on collection of their child.

POLICY….Rainbow may have children who attend that may be anaphylactic to nuts so please do not send your children with NUTELLA, PEANUT BUTTER, MIXED NUTS, MUSELI BARS WITH NUTS,

or ANYTHING that contains NUTS thank you for your cooperation….

Closing dates to enrol Friday 31 st March 2017

As per Government Regulations we are obliged to give preference to those using Vacation Care for work related purposes.

NEW Rainbow WEBSITE ADDRESS: www.rainbow.nsw.edu.auParents can go online and get enrolment forms and programs for Vacation Care also there will be updates on any variation to the program due to weather etc. go to www.rainbow.nsw.edu.au

All bookings MUST come through the Office. In the past few holiday periods there have been some problems re children being booked in, not turning up and fees not being paid. As a result we will have to be stricter in future. Swapping will not be possible. Once you have booked for a day, you are required to pay for that day, even if you do not attend . If you want to add an extra day, you may do so if space is available, and any bookings for extra days must be made through the centre office. OOSHC staff cannot take such bookings and will refer you to contact the office.

Any family with debt unpaid to Rainbow will not be able to book for vacation care until the debt has been paid. If you have an unpaid debt and you wish to book for the April VC please bring a completed enrolment form to the Centre and see Jan, Jodie or Leo and pay your arrears and pay for your new booking in advance.

At Rainbow we will make minimal use of electronic media during VC. We will not have a computer and TV/video will be restricted to days when such activity is specifically planned, or days when inclement weather keeps children indoors for long periods. We want children to be actively engaged with sports, games and social activities; although of course we allow a child to undertake more solitary or quiet activity if that is their preference.

Staff cannot be responsible for your child’s belongings. Children are expected to bring their own food and to take care of their own belongings. We advise against children bringing in expensive items (e.g. electronic games) that may go astray within a large group. All hand held games are to be given to staff to put in safe place. While staff will assist and support children, we expect a fair amount of independence in looking after their own belongings from children in vacation care.

Vacation Care is meant to be an enjoyable holiday break for children. We reserve the right to refuse, limit or restrict the enrolment of children who persistently demonstrate aggressive, anti social or bullying behaviours.

Many Thanks from, Kylie, April, Jake and Various casuals.

Please hand in or email your enrollments quickly to ensure you get a place for your child/ren.

Leonie Crowe is the OOSHC Coordinator and can be contacted onMob: 0466727633
