What’s been happening at OSHC Hi OSHC Families,

This week the Educators and children have been busy, creative and

productive making, shaping and doing; origami houses, face painting,

sewing Heart Cushions, library, BUSH OSHC, wheels, drawing,

gymnastics, making taco’s, playing cricket, tennis, soccer, hall games,

and lots more. Meg even dropped in for her monthly sessions.

The OSHC Staff undertook a required training session on Protective

Care, which covers legislation around child safety, mandatory

reporting and recognizing signs of abuse.

We also have a young volunteer (an ex-student of BEPS) Yr 8 Duke

of Edinburgh Award student spending time with us each Wednesday;

On the whole another great week…..

NEW CHILDCARE PACKAGE

Commences July 2018

Are you ready?

The Australian Government is rolling out a new childcare Package;

Jobs for families to be implemented from July 2018. This package will replace the

current Childcare Assistance Scheme, including the childcare benefit and child-

care rebate. The new package will make the childcare system more flexible, more

accessible, more affordable and targeted to those who need it most. Families are

strongly encouraged to familiarise themselves with this new initiative and the new

requirements for families and services well before it rolls out in July 2018.

For more information please go to; www.education.gov.au
