Out of School Hours Care
The Glennie Outside School Hours Care is a high-quality service that provides before school care, after school care and vacation care for children aged 3 to 12 years.
Known as Pitstop – a home away from home where children can take a break and refuel – our exceptional Out of School Hours Care program caters for all school-aged children before and after school. Pitstop also offers an exciting vacation care program which is open to non-Glennie students as well.
Kindergarten-aged children have their own after school and vacation care program – Kindy Care – that operates from the Junior School’s Prep area.
Run by professionally trained and dedicated staff, Pitstop and Kindy Care is a place where children can unwind, relax and play in a comfortable and fun environment designed to provide a welcome break from their regular classroom.
A safe and caring environment
At Pitstop, we pride ourselves on creating a safe and caring environment that nurtures the individuality of each child. The program integrated into the OSHC complements learning at school and at home. The incorporated activities include arts and crafts, outdoor and indoor play, cooking, and excursions. Our before and after school care options are available to all enrolled Glennie Girls. Our Vacation Care is open to siblings of Glennie students and external students from surrounding schools.
