More than OOSH

Reimagining outside of school hours care - delivering exceptional programs that equip students beyond the classroom.

Reimagining Outside School Hours Care

Outside Of School Hours Care (OOSH) plays an increasingly important role in supporting Australian families, with hundreds of thousands of primary-aged children engaging in care programs each year. At St Philip’s Christian Education, this growing need presented an opportunity to think beyond traditional models - creating a program designed for meaningful learning, development, and connection.

My Time, Our Place

Working alongside the 'My Time, Our Place' framework, Saints Academy was developed to complement formal schooling by providing enriching experiences that nurture the whole child. Through creative arts, STEM, outdoor education, discovery learning, and play-based experiences, children are encouraged to explore their interests, build confidence, and develop important life skills in a supportive environment. 

What Makes us Different?

At the heart of Saints Academy is a commitment to student agency, curiosity, and holistic growth. Children are given opportunities to choose activities that interest them, build friendships, discover new talents, and engage in experiences that foster creativity, resilience, and wellbeing - creating a vibrant community where learning continues well beyond the classroom.
