'the advancement of education'

Our service serves the 4 primary schools within the community and supports families by providing flexible, affordable, and high­quality childcare for children aged 4.5 years to 14 years, 50 weeks of the year. EPOSC provides a safe, friendly, and caring environment that encourages children to develop socially and emotionally to become confident individuals, successful learners, effective contributors and responsible citizens. Through stimulating and challenging play opportunities, the children develop self­esteem, teamwork, new skillsets and confidence, which in turn allows parents and carers to access employment, training, and education.
