What does Becklyn Do?

The Becklyn organisation administers ALL functions, including the establishment of a new OSHC or BASC Centre, on behalf of a Parent Management Committee or other recognised sponsoring entity.

It is actually easier to state what we DON’T do as there are only four main items we recommend be carried out by other members of the Centre. They are:

1. We do not sign cheques or release funds in any way
2. We do not write the minutes for the Committee meetings
3. We do not do the initial receipting of cash received at the Centre
4. We do not prepare the children’s activities programs
