It is so good to be able to keep offering this valuable service to our families!
❤️ For many families, the school bell doesn’t signal the end of the day.
Juggling work, appointments and school pick-ups can be challenging at the best of times. For parents and carers of children with additional needs – particularly in regional Victoria – finding the right support outside school hours isn’t always easy.
That’s why I’m so pleased the Allan Labor Government has secured funding in the recent State Budget to continue high intensity Outside School Hours Care at specialist schools, including Lake Colac School.
Programs like this provide safe, supportive care for students while giving families a little more flexibility and peace of mind.
It’s practical support that can make a world of difference, and I’m proud we’re continuing to invest in it.
