The PCYC in Parkes offers after school care and vacation care for children from Kindergarten to Year 6.
With the school holidays just around the corner, it is important to book a place as only 45 children can be accommodated per day.
With Maddye Potts as co-ordinator vacation care will run from 10th to 14th April; 17th to 21st April and 24th and 25th April. A full program filled with lots of different activities, including physical play, craft, cooking, drama, science, creative play, movies, electronics and of course Easter crafts has been drawn up. An excursion day to the Western Plains Zoo is planned for Wednesday, 19th April, and the next day kids will make their own cornflake chicken nuggets and sweet potato chips lunch.
The PCYC provides morning tea, while each child brings lunch and afternoon tea.
After school care is run five days a week from 3 to 6pm for Kindergarten to Year 6 students. They do similar activities as in holiday care, but also do homework twice a week to help take stress off parents. There are openings available in after school care.
Both programs are flexible to allow kids to come as needed. Contact the PCYC on 6862 3825 to book a place or to get an in- formation pack on cost.
