Childcare
Macquarie Community College Blacktown provides students enrolled in the AMEP with free childcare through KU Children's Services while studying.

The childcare program we offer aims to achieve the following goals.

• Provide educational and culturaly relevant programs for all children in our care
• Provide a variety of bilingual staff
• Ensure the wellbeing and health of the children in our care
• Encourage parent participation on any level
• Encourage the use of the child's first language as well as English
• Develop each Child's awareness of, and pride in, his or her own language and culture
• Support diverse cultural groups within our community
• Support and provide ongoing training for childcare staff
• Maintain a positive relationship between English language learning and childcare

Childcare assistance is available to AMEP students only. For 6 week - 2½ year olds, you may be offered childcare in one of the mainstream centres, close to your home. For 2½ - 5 year olds, we are able to provide on-site childcare assistance in our AMEP childcare centre downstairs.

Please keep in mind that if you have a child in our on-site childcare centre on the ground floor at 125 Main Street, Blacktown, you will not be permitted to leave the building without taking your child with you. This is a strict government legislation that you must comply with.

This is a free service while studying for students who are enrolled in the AMEP. To arrange childcare while you study English, just ask your teacher or the administration staff at Macquarie Community College Blacktown.

The AMEP childcare service is provided by KU Children's Services.
