When and how can we enrol our children to attend OSHC?
Enrolments open for 2024 Prep families in October 2023. If you have previously contacted the team at OSHC, your email address would have been added to the Expression of Interest list and as a result you will receive an Enrolment package. If you are unsure whether you are on the email list, please contact OSHC at manager@sherwoodoshc.com.au to verify this. Alternatively, digital versions of the 2023 Enrolment package will be made available on the website.
