WELCOME TO KAS HILLPARK

KAS has proudly been part of the Hillpark community since 2022, providing fun, engaging and reliable care for local families.

Our programme is based in the Hillpark School Hall, where children enjoy a welcoming environment with plenty of space to play, create, learn and connect. We also have full use of the kitchen facilities, making cooking and baking activities a regular favourite, along with access to the school's playgrounds and fields for active outdoor fun.

Our experienced KAS team brings energy, enthusiasm and genuine care to every session, creating a place where children feel welcome, included and excited to be. Each day is thoughtfully planned with a balance of organised activities, free play and opportunities for children to build friendships, develop confidence and have fun.

During Terms 1 and 4, we are fortunate to have access to the school's swimming pool. Children are welcome to take part in supervised swimming sessions once a completed permission form has been received.

Our Holiday Programme also operates from our Hillpark site, with every day offering a great mix of creative activities, sports, games, themed days, special visitors and exciting adventures that keep children engaged and entertained throughout the school holidays.
