About School’s Out Lakeside
“The best place between school and home.”
Ko taku wahī motuhake
At School’s Out Lakeside we are proud of our family friendly atmosphere. Our home away from home began in 2006, based on the premise that quality relationships are formed by treating each child as an individual.
As an established OSCAR provider, we understand what it means to provide quality care for children.
Above all, our team deliver an exciting and innovative programme, suitable for children of all ages.
We also provide a pick up service for students from surrounding schools (see list below).
Our pick up service takes the stress out of after school care.
Our centre has a fleet of vans providing a transport service to/from the following schools:
Taupo Primary
Tauhara Primary
St Patricks
Taupo Intermediate
Mount View School
Hilltop School
Wairakei School
After School Care
Our after school sessions include afternoon tea and an opportunity for children to complete their homework. We communicate closely with nearby schools, supporting and reinforcing their values. A range of activities are on offer including group games, crafts, sports, and baking.
Holiday Programme
Our holiday programme is another great reason to enrol your child with SO Lakeside. Check out our Facebook page for our most recent holiday programme flyer. We strive to provide activities that children of all ages will enjoy.
WINZ Subsidies and Discounts
School’s Out Lakeside is MSD approved, allowing many families to be eligible for OSCAR subsidies.
We also offer sibling discounts for 2 or more children.
