24.01.2022 With new restrictions coming into effect midnight tonight please ensure to use hand sanitiser before signing in and out. The Ipad will be located on the small serving table under the pergola out the back of OSHC. Many thanks

23.01.2022 Monday at OSHC the children created this beautiful mural. It began with two children creating a small design. As other children walked passed they took notice of the art work and quickly grabbed a piece of colourful Chalk and added their own design. As more children joined in they decided to complete a whole section of the pavement.

21.01.2022 PJ pamper day was a massive success. We painted our nails, made shrinky dinks, watched movies and rode our bikes and scooters.

Thank you for creating a brighter, kinder, stronger, smarter world. You are all STARs

04.01.2022 . A lot of warnings have been issued for children to stay off social media, specifically Tik Tok, d...ue to a graphic self harm video thats circulating. While we do recommend that parents monitor their children or keep them off the platform, it's a band-aid solution for a long-term issue due to the fact that distressing videos constantly circulate online. Instead we would like to encourage all parents and guardians to -: 1 . Understand that they will most likely use it, whether you understand the appeal or not. Ask them what apps they use, find out why they like those apps. Start a dialogue so you can start understanding why its important to them. The more you understand about it, the more you can stay across it. 2 . If you know what apps theyre using, help them make their profile as secure as possible, whether its TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitch or Reddit (the list is endless). You can do this with the help of this eSafety Commissioner guide: www.esafety.gov.au/key-issues/esafety-guide 3 . Be open and willing to listen. Make them aware of Kids Helpline Official (1800 55 1800), Beyond Blue (1300 22 4636), headspace (headspace.org.au) and Lifeline (13 11 14) so they know they have a place to contact if they dont feel comfortable approaching you. 4 . Kids often create a social media profile that they make visible to you, but keep their actual profile under a fake name hidden from you. Again, this is why we encourage you to talk to your child openly and honestly. 5 . If your child watches YouTube videos, please be aware there's no guarantee that this content will be safe for kids. People can easily edit distressing videos for kids that slip through the filters. If you can't monitor your child on YouTube then let them watch Netflix kids instead as it has stronger filters. SBS and ABC iview are both free alternatives for childrens online content. The Office of the eSafety Commissioner is a great resource for parents, guardians and kids: www.esafety.gov.au

If coming for Vacation care, please ensure to have a HAT, drink bottle, recess, lunch (in separate bags from siblings). Children can also bring bikes or scooters with helmets and electronic devices, but NO PHONES. ... 3.
