Our juniors headed into the city for a visit to SparkLab, where there was plenty to explore, experiment with and create.

One of the highlights was the Tesla Coil show, where the children watched as electricity was used to create different noises and even songs! They also had the opportunity to explore a range of experiments and get hands-on at the make-and-create station.

A great day of experimenting, creating, questioning and discovering how things work.

Senior Inventors Day

Our kiddo's split into 4 teams and were challenged to invent something that solves a problem in the world today.

Pink fluffy unicorns (Team 1): The problem - Passenger planes use too much jet fuel which is bad for the environment. The solution - an electric solar passenger plane.

Traashy rats (team 2): The problem - the loose parts trolley is too hard to bring up and down from the main room. The solution - a pulley system.

Green beans (team 3): The problem - theres too many chickens in the world. The solution - the nuggetnator, a machine that will suck up the chickens and turn them into nuggets as well as extracting their feathers to use for pillows.

Timmys (team 4): The problem - picking up dog p**p is gross. The solution - the automatic p**per scooper.

Once the children had designed and planned their inventions, we caught a train to Reverse Garbage Queensland Co-op Ltd to purchase the resources they needed to bring their ideas to life (with a limit of 20$ per team).

We then returned to OSHC and got to work building our inventions. Once they were complete, the children presented and demonstrated their inventions to the juniors, explaining what they had created and how their inventions were designed to solve a problem.

The voting was close, but there could only be one favourite invention of the day...

The Solar Electric Plane! ✈️

A great example of children taking an idea from imagination, through planning and problem-solving, into something they could actually build, test and share with others.

Happy Big OSHC Build!

Today was all things building and creating. Cubbies, lego challenges, tree houses and possum boxes just to name a few 👌

One of the things we are most proud of at our service is children's agency and our ability to support their ideas into fruition. Well today was THE BEST example of this that I could ever provide you.

During term 3 one of our seniors approached us with a PowerPoint presentation and a proposal. 'Village day, but in the wild west' he said.

It took a few weeks of planning to get to today, but what a BLAST!! Massive shout out to Ned and Gypsy for all their wild west passion and ideas, and to the rest of our kiddo's for getting involved and making today so fun.

Another Fantastic day out at Bradbury Park with plenty of heights and just as many nooks to hide in ✌️

As you may well be aware, we have been working very hard over the past little while to review, reflect on and update our written service philosophy.

Well, as we celebrate our 2nd birthday, we are excited to finally unveil our new service philosophy!

Our philosophy is more than just a document. It reflects who we are, what we value and, most importantly, what we believe children’s experiences at Outsiders OSHC should look and feel like. It has been shaped through conversations, reflections, ideas and contributions from the people who make up our community.

We want to say a huge thank you to all of the children, families and community members who have participated in this process. Your voices, experiences and perspectives have helped us think deeply about who we are as a service and where we want to go next.

So, on our second birthday, we are very proud to share the philosophy that represents Outsiders OSHC today and the service we continue to work towards becoming.

Happy 2nd birthday, Outsiders OSHC Cannon Hill SS!
