Out of School Hours Care
Newmarket State School’s P&C association operates a licensed Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) service, located within the school grounds. Care is available for children enrolled in Newmarket State School. The co-directors for the service are Vanessa Crowe and Emily Rendell.
A number of casual educators who hold a wide range of qualifications relating to the care of children are employed in OSHC roles. All our staff members are trained in first aid and hold a current suitability card for child related employment, issued by the Commission for Children and Young People. A list of their names is on the OSHC door.
