OSHC NEWSLETTER (Term 2 Week 5)

Breakfast Club

Come along to OSHC on Wednesday mornings for a taste of breakfast from around the world. Each week, an Educator will cook up a special breakfast with the children. It may be culturally significant or simply a loved family meal. Join us next Wednesday for Educators Pascal and Marie’s Dutch Brekky Special – “Wentelteefjes”. Please book before school care via XAP, or email us at oshcgeneral@bulimbass.eq.edu.au for more info.

National Reconciliation Week

Next week at Bulimba OSHC, we’re honouring National Reconciliation Week with the theme "Bridging Now to Next". Together with the children, we’re exploring how the past connects to the present—and how we can help shape a better future through respect, understanding and shared stories.

As part of our Reconciliation Action Plan, we’re creating meaningful opportunities for children to learn about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories, cultures and contributions—building a bridge from now to what comes next. Join us at OSHC next week for some thoughtful experiences, including Educator Ella sharing dot painting techniques passed down from her grandmother from Barunggam Country.

For more information about our Reconciliation Action Plan, please visit the Narragunnawali platform.

Important Reminders

• Please ensure you update your income estimate by 30^th June via Services Australia in order to receive accurate Child Care Subsidy (CCS) assistance. Please click here for more information.
• We have recently had a large number of families not notifying us of absences prior to a session. If your child will not be attending a before or after school care session, please mark them absent via XAP or by sending us an email. As we have had waiting lists on Tuesdays and Thursdays in particular, this will free up spaces for those additional families needing care.
