Southern Cross Catholic College Outside School Hours Care will open in January 2020 providing before school care and after school care. We are situated in the grounds of Southern Cross Catholic College Woody Point campus. We are proud to support the families and children of the school, parish and local community.

We run a flexible and adaptable child-initiated program incorporating children’s ideas, cultures and interests. We view each child as having preparedness, potential, curiosity and interest in constructing their own learning and in negotiating everything the environment presents to them. We provide guidance and support to children so they can discover, explore and create something new every day.

Our service strives to foster an environment that celebrates diversity and interdependence and we encourage children to value and respect the individual uniqueness, spirituality and contribution of others.

Meet Our Staff

Dianne Chittick

Coordinator

I’ve been an early ed coordinator for:
Over 20 years.
My favourite thing about being an early ed coordinator is:
Spending time with children and seeing them grow and change as well as getting to know them and their families.
Something I like to tell all mums and dads is:
That their child has had some positive experiences in our care and their child is achieving social and emotionally.
My favourite way to relax is:
Artistic Roller Skating. I previously competed at National Level for 3 years and now I have an Advanced Level Coaching Accreditation as well as Judging and Refereeing Commissions.
