Manly OOSH (Outside Of School Hours) care aims to provide a high quality of care in a friendly, supportive, safe and caring environment. The service is located inside Manly Village Public School NSW 2095 and is managed by a volunteer Parent Management Committee (PMC) comprised of parents whose children attend the service, in conjunction with the Manly OOSH Management Team. Manly OOSH (MOOSH) operates in much the same way as a small business, with one exception – we are a genuine non-profit organisation.

Acknowledgement To Country

Manly OOSH wish to acknowledge the Traditional Owners, the Gayamaygal People, and their country on which we live, work and play. By these words we would also like to show our respect to all Traditional Custodians of the land.

We acknowledge the Elders in the past and in the spirits and ancestors of the Clans that lived in this area.

Testimonials

We would like to thank everyone at MOOSH for the most amazing experience of ours and our children's lives. The commitment you and your team have exemplified should be the model of every OOSH establishment all over the world. We could not be happier with the staff that made our children so happy - they never wanted to leave! We can't tell you how many times our children said ``Why are you here so early?!``, and we also heard the same many times when other children were being collected. The administration and financial team were just as great, if not better. When we entered the program from the waiting list, all the way until we exited MOOSH, we were professionally and personally handled with perfect guidance. Your team did it with the care and understanding we needed, thank you for everything MOOSH - your team rocks!!!!- Kevin & Diah, Parents
Thank you for all the care and fun you have given `{`our son`}` at MOOSH since he started Kindy - we could not have managed without the service and the educators have been wonderful!- Charlotte, Year 3 Parent
All 3 of our children have attended MOOSH for BSC, ASC and vacation care. The environment the MOOSH educators create is one of fun, personal growth and respect. Each of our boys have thrived at MOOSH through the wonderful varied activities and the opportunity to play with different kids from other Years. Vacation care programs are fantastic - far more exciting than what us parents could offer! As a former management committee member I appreciate the strict adherence to quality standards borne out through how well the Centre is run. But most of all we appreciate the kindness shown to our boys throughout the last 10 years. MOOSH is a truly wonderful environment for kids.- Emma & Rob, Parents
My kindergarten students absolutely love going to Moosh! They always leave of an afternoon excited to go to Moosh and are filled with anticipation for the planned activities. Their genuine joy for going to after school care is a reflection of the dedication and efforts of the Moosh staff. The students who attend Moosh often link their programmed experiences they have at Moosh into the learning sequence in the classroom - especially in Science. As a teacher, it is wonderful to see my students<br /> linking their learning they have experienced through the fun and exciting after school program at Moosh into our classroom learning journey.

My daughter is new to MOOSH this year but so far she loves it and in particular we as parents value the social aspect of MOOSH. The afternoons allow her to play with friends and build relationships. Sometimes these are rowdy active games organized by educators that encourage turn taking or team work and sometimes they are quieter small group activities involving art or construction where she can play along side her friends. The opportunity at MOOSH to build relationships with friends has been important for my daughter feeling like she belongs and has friends at her new school.- Anna, Parent
Can I please compliment you and your team. Our local school doesn’t offer vacation care, so we visit others to allow for me to continue to work when needed (and having a little holiday in different locations). The kids have been to about 10 different centres in NSW and Vic, but yours stands out as the best for offerings, coordination and being child centred. Thank you to you and your team for delivering such a wonderful environment and offering fantastic experiences.- Chris
