Compliance is only the starting point. At Child Australia, we go beyond compliance by embedding best practice child safety strategies every day.

We’ve taken proactive steps across our services such as:
✅ Appointing Child Safety Champions
✅ New safeguarding roles to keep safety visible and supported
✅ Stronger recruitment and complaints processes
✅ Child Safe Working Group driving continuous improvement
✅ Our “See It. Stop It. Say It.” initiative reminding us all that safety is everyone’s responsibility

Together with families and educators, we are creating services where children are not only safe, but feel safe, respected and empowered to thrive.

Something exciting is 🏀 bouncing & kicking into our service this term!

We’ve teamed up with CUBE Sports to bring basketball & AFL sessions to our children — and we can’t wait!! 🙌

These sessions aren’t just about learning to dribble, catch or kick, children also develop:
✨ Teamwork & communication
✨ Respect & discipline
✨ Confidence & resilience
✨ A love of active, healthy play

Basketball & AFL is the perfect way to get children moving, working together and having fun — all while building character and friendships.

CUBE Sports AFL incursion day Monday. The children enjoyed having Theo come and go through some drills with them today.

📌 Our Favourite Spaces ✨ Home Corner & Quiet Room 🧸

Our children love the home corner, where imaginative play comes to life!

From cooking up pretend meals to role-playing family life, this space helps build creativity, problem-solving, and social skills.

We also treasure our quiet room, a cosy spot where children can relax, read, and enjoy some calm time away from the busyness of play. Here, little minds can reset, focus, and foster a love of books. 📚💡

🎉OSHC Educators’ Day!

Yesterday, we came together to celebrate our incredible OSHC educators... and what a well-deserved celebration it was! 🙌

Every single day, you show up with patience, creativity, humour and heart.

Thank you for creating safe spaces where children can unwind, explore, play and belong. 💗

Before and after school, school holidays and everything in between; you show up with dedication and care.

You’re more than educators; you’re mentors, role models and the reason children feel supported and inspired every day.

We see you, we appreciate you and we celebrate YOU!
