The September Holiday programme was a great success. One of the highlights was the trip to Owlcatraz in Shannon. Joey the cockatoo welcomed us.
We saw and heard morepork, Grman owls, weka, a kune kune pig, ostriches, llamas just to name a few.
The younger children had a wonderful ride on the train.
We walked around a manmade lake and saw eels in the stream.
Then back on the bus for the ride home, a few children had a nap. A great day had by all.
Muritai Out of School Care (MASC) aims to provide a caring, safe and stimulating programme that caters for different ages, gender and cultural backgrounds while attempting to encompass individual needs and interests.
We believe that MASC should be a fun and supportive environment where everyone feels welcome, children are able to be involved in the planning of what they do and parents/caregivers are involved in issues that relate to them and their children. Our aim is to provide a quality service that is inclusive, equitable and culturally appropriate.
We promote a sense of community within this environment and provide activities and skill learning that links the space between school and home so that there is a focus on constructive play and individual learning through free choice.
We cater for any primary aged child in Eastbourne (Year 0 to 8). MASC has the use of the Green Room, Art Room and Hall at Muritai School and also the school grounds. Before School Care operates 7.30am to 9am daily and After School Care between 3pm and 6pm (school terms only).
Programme
MASC is an OSCAR (Out of School Care and Recreation) approved programme. A benefit of this is that parents are able to apply for WINZ subsidy. Children are supervised both inside and outside with a simple, nourishing afternoon tea provided daily. A specific arts and craft programme runs each term and sports are played daily. Other activities vary from week to week including cooking, and lots of fun.
A large range of sports equipment, board games and construction material is available. A quiet room is available for children to rest, read or complete homework.
