A late pick-up fee of $10 may apply to children not collected on time and then a further $10 per 10 minutes thereafter (or part thereof); unless previously organised and agreed upon by the Oscar Manager or Managing Director

Parents / caregivers must inform the Oscar Manager if their child is to be collected by a person not authorised in the childs Enrolmy profile.
