OSHC NEWSLETTER (Term 3 Week 1)

Spring Vacation Care

Our Winter Vacation Care was a wonderful success with our excursion to Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary and our Pokemon Safari Day amongst some of the favourites. We are now preparing for our Spring program and already have some exciting things planned; including our annual Op Shop Tour, Games Van and a Day on the Green. If you have any ideas, please feel free to let us know by emailing oshcgeneral@bulimbass.eq.edu.au

Term 3 Additional Activities 

This term we have two additional activities running during after school care: 

  1. Mondays - MF Martial Arts (External Provider) - Combining the fitness and discipline of Martial Arts with life skills and values to help set children up for success.
  2. Wednesdays - Bulimba Big Buddies - An important step in our prep transition program.  Children will be participating in a program with Tugulawa Early Education where they have the opportunity to create meaningful relationships, and intentionally develop leadership skills and responsibility with Tugulawa's Kindergarten cohort.  We value the amazing relationship we have with Tugulawa and look forward to another successful program in Term 3 and 4. 

 If you are interested in participating in any of these programs, please email oshcgeneral@bulimbass.eq.edu.au

 Breakfast Club

We have smoothies on the menu for breakfast club next Wednesday, 30th July. If you would like to join us, please book before school care via XAP. Keep an eye on our menu for more breakfast club ideas this term.

Staffing Update

  • We welcome Lilly to our Educator team. Lilly is an ex BSS student who has already made such a positive impact and is a wonderful addition to our team.
  • Our Lead Educator, Ben Guse, is currently in Germany competing in the World Uni Games. Ben is an Ex BSS student, has been part of our Educator team for the last 5 years and is currently the Australian National Decathlon Champion. Ben also started our OSHC Kilometre Club in 2024 and is looking forward to bringing this back later this term. We wish him all the best in Germany and look forward to cheering him on over the next few days.

 Important Reminders

  • Did you know we have a Facebook (Bulimba OSHC) and Instagram account (@bulimbaoshc)? Follow us on these platforms to see what we get up to.

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
