Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) at Lowood State School
Welcome to Somerset Kids OSHC – Where we let children BE children
Somerset Kids OSHC is a warm, family-minded outside school hours care service, built around respect, fun and growth. We believe in nurturing every child's natural curiosity, creativity and friendships giving them space to explore and thrive while feeling safe, supported and genuinely valued.
Aligned with our company motto, “Where we let children BE children," our program is designed around learning through play and leisure-based opportunities that promote confidence, creativity, friendships and fun.
Whether your child joins us before school, after school or during school holidays, they become part of our extended “kids family" where laughter, learning and play are at the heart of everything we do.
About Us
• We are family-oriented and community-focused. Just like Plainland Kindergarten and Child Care and Raceview Kindergarten and Child Care, Somerset Kids OSHC is built on a belief that children flourish when they feel secure, cared for, and free to be themselves.
• We foster growth through play and leisure. Our programs emphasise learning through play, leisure-based opportunities and social experiences giving children time to imagine, discover, interact and grow.
• Safe, nurturing and fun. Our team are committed to providing a caring environment where each child is treated with respect and kindness as though they are our own.
• Inclusive & supportive. We welcome all children and families, and strive to build strong, trusting partnerships with parents to support each child's development, well-being, and sense of belonging.
