NSW students and families will have better access to before and after school care than ever before with 44 new hubs to be rolled out in schools across the state over the next 12 months.
Minister for Education and Early Learning Sarah Mitchell said the purpose-built sites known as "hubs" were part of the NSW Government's $40 million commitment to create more out of school hours care (OSHC) places.
"We've delivered 47 hubs already and will roll out more than 90 in total around the state, providing facilities for up to 4,800 students," Ms Mitchell said.
"Every hub includes a play space, offices, toilets and kitchens, allowing students to enjoy a safe and fun environment, whilst providing parents with the flexibility they need.
"The NSW Government is focused on supporting working families and helping to cut waiting times in areas of high demand with 19,420 additional before and after school care places created since 2019."
Ten of the latest hubs have been temporarily redistributed to the North Coast to assist with flood recovery and provide accommodation for dislocated OSHC and preschool services.
The NSW Government is investing $8.6 billion in school infrastructure over the next four years, continuing its program to deliver 160 new and upgraded schools to support communities across NSW. This builds on the more than $9.1 billion invested in projects delivered since 2017, a program of $17.7 billion in public education infrastructure.
