Following this week’s MPSS P&C AGM, we’re excited to introduce the newly elected P&C Executive Committee, and P&C Team for 2026 🎉

As a P&C operated OSHC service, we are incredibly fortunate to have a dedicated group of volunteers working behind the scenes to lead & support our OSHC service.

We’re looking forward to working closely together in 2026 🌟

L-R: Lauren (Secretary), Sean (President), Rachel & Amy (Fundraising Coordinators), Laura (Vice President), Lauren (Web & Communications), Talbot (Treasurer), and Angie (Grants Coordinator - not pictured).

Perfect weather to start saying goodbye to Summer holidays with some wet & wild fun! Not too sure who had more fun today, educators, or the children who egged us on to have a go on the water slide & hydroblaster in our uniforms 🤔🤣

We are on the bus back from today’s excursion to Area 51! ETA 1.30pm

We are currently on our way back to the service after today’s excursion to the movies! ETA 1.15pm

✨ That’s a wrap on MPSS OSHC for 2025!

Thank you to our wonderful families for your support, kindness and partnership throughout the year. We’ve shared so many laughs, adventures and special moments with your children - we can’t wait to do it all again in 2026!

Thank you also for the very thoughtful end of year gifts - they truly made our team feel appreciated 💚💙.

Wishing all of our families a fun, safe and relaxing holiday break. We look forward to seeing you all again in the new year!

Best of luck to our outgoing year 6’s (& their parents!) as they transition to high school. We’ll be thinking of you! 🎉

MPSS OSHC will reopen on Monday, 5th January 2026. Until then …🏝️😎

🎄 OSHC Children’s Christmas Party! 🎄

We’re excited to celebrate the festive season with our OSHC children on Thursday 11th December. Join us for an afternoon of festive fun, games and Christmas cheer ✨🎅🏻

Children must be booked into Thursday ASC either as a permanent or casual booking via Smart Central to attend.

We can’t wait to celebrate with you 🌟🎄

This holiday season, we’re once again collecting donations to support Goodna Street Life Christmas Food Bank Collection 🎅🏻🎄🎁. Together, we’re hoping to ensure no one goes under this Christmas or New Years ❤️✨.

This year, in conjunction with their food bank, Goodna Street Life are also collecting toys for their toy drive between the value of $5-$20z.

If you’re able to do so, please consider donating non-perishable food items, toiletries or toys such as those listed on the infographic donations can be made directly to the drop off point within our OSHC building.

Thank you in advance to our MPSS OSHC Community, your small contribution makes a big difference to those in need 💙💚

🔋❄️ Happy FRI-YAY, power has been restored! ❄️🔋

BIG thank you to our wonderful OSHC community for your cooperation & understanding this week. It’s been a joint effort to navigate an unpredictable week! 💚💙

❗️🥵 MPSS is currently experiencing a school wide power outage. OSHC’s fans & air conditioning are unfortunately affected. We are trying our best to keep children comfortable & well hydrated, whilst reducing overexertion.

If you have the capacity or capabilities to do so, picking up when practically possible would help our little ones today.

I apologise for what feels like yet another message of the same nature lately - when it rains it pours! Once again, thank you for your continued support, it is greatly appreciated.
