St Pius Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) service offers care to the Banyo/Nudgee community from St Pius Primary School’s hall.
Our OSHC program supports working families by providing a safe environment before and after school that is designed to cater to their children’s age, skills, interests and abilities.
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 everyday.
Our centre strives to foster a culture that celebrates diversity and interdependence and we encourage children to value and respect each other. We work with St Pius Primary School and our parish community to give the children the best possible experience whilst they are in our care.
We offer the Government funded Active After School Care program which involves an outside coach coming to the service for one hour and engaging the children in a specific sport. Children vote each term for what they would like to do the next term.

Your child’s health and wellbeing is our top priority and we recognise the essential role sleep, rest and relaxation plays in your child’s development.
As children grow they develop confidence and self-esteem from their interactions with others. There are a number of things you can do to help your children grow into confident young people, and in this article we look at some simple strategies you can use to build your child’s self-esteem.
Just as we all have different interests, tastes and preferences, we all have different ways of learning. This is especially true of young children, who will all learn in different ways and at their own pace. It’s important to allow children to learn and grow in the way that suits them best.
