Hi Families,

Just a quick reminder to please complete your 2026 re-enrolment if you haven’t already.

Completing your re-enrolment means we can lock in your child’s place for Before & After School Care next year. If re-enrolment isn’t submitted:

Your child will have no bookings for 2026, and

You’ll be unable to use Vacation Care until the form is completed.

We want to make sure your child’s spot is secured and everything is ready for the new year, so please take a moment to submit your re-enrolment as soon as possible.

If you need any help, please reach out — we’re here to support you.

Thanks so much,
Lake Mac Newy OOSH Team

Each holiday period, we invest time in strengthening our practice, reviewing safety expectations, and ensuring every educator is prepared to deliver a high-quality, engaging, and safe program for your children.
During today’s session, we covered key topics such as engaging activities, child protection, risk management, excursions, supervision strategies, behaviour support, and any updated legislative requirements. These sessions help us reflect, align, and ensure consistency and quality across all services.
We are proud of the dedication and professionalism our educators bring to every school holiday period, and we want our families to know how much work happens behind the scenes to create a safe, fun, and meaningful experience for your children.
If you have any questions about our Vacation Care program or today’s training, please feel free to reach out , we are always here to support you and your family.
