Today, Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews announced that only the children of permitted workers and vulnerable children will be able to access childcare during the current Victorian restriction period. This also includes families that are working from home in permitted industries.

From 11:59pm on Wednesday, 5^th August, families will need to obtain one of two permits, signed by their employer, in order to attend Outside School Hours Care:

• If required to attend work onsite, they will need a Permitted Worker Permit (including childcare).
• If working from home, and needing access to childcare, they will need an Access to Onsite Childcare/Kindergarten Permit.
