Your OSHC is Camp Australia’s before school, after school and pupil free day program, tailored to the likes and interests of each child in service. Camp Australia’s educators design enriching experiences to inspire your children’s confidence, independence and imagination. In any one week, they could be participating in science experiments, active play, creative expression and more - they believe in learning through experience so that each child can grow.

Uniform

The Wattle View School Council has made school uniform compulsory on all occasions. Our purpose in having a school uniform is to:

  • create a sense of identify and belonging and thus improving morale
  • promote the school through more readily identifiable groups of children
  • remove the pressures of fashions on parents and children

The uniform shop is now open every day by contacting the office.
