Outside School Hours Care – Decision Making Regarding the Provision of OSHC

OSHC establishment grants

The Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) Establishment Grant initiative provided grant funding to Victorian government schools delivering primary aged education without an existing OSHC program. The initiative aimed to improve the availability of OSHC services across Victoria, ensuring that all children and families are able to access programs on their school site or in their local area.

The initiative had 4 application rounds between 2021 and 2023. Round 1 closed in February 2021, Round 2 closed in September 2021, Round 3 closed in July 2022 and Round 4 in August 2023.

For enquiries or information about what resources and assistance are available to schools establishing OSHC, please contact the OSHC Establishment Grants team at oshc.central@education.vic.gov.au
