About Us

Kelly Club Australia Pty Ltd provides before care, after care and vacation care programs throughout Victoria. Our aim is to provide not just "a childcare facility", but to run programmes in a safe environment that entertain and inspire our future generations.

Our goal is to give children opportunities to do the things they love and enjoy in a supportive and encouraging environment. We use a professional program model and have local people take control of the program; this means Kelly Club programs best meet the needs of the local community.

Programs are focused around sports, cooking, discovery, trips and art and craft activities, as well as relaxation time around a busy life at school. Children are encouraged, educated and entertained during their time on our programmes.

We have been established in Victoria for over 7 years and have experienced partners in New Zealand.
