🍎 A full lunch box: please pack enough for a full day, as we are very active!
💧 A full drink bottle: staying hydrated is important!
👕 A spare change of clothes: just in case we get stuck into some extra messy, creative or adventurous fun! 🎨💦
👟 Closed-in shoes: essential for all activities & for everyone’s safety. Crocs, slides & thongs are a no-go! 🚫

Living Our Best Lives at Active OOSH Old Bar 🤩🌸☀️

✨ We're enjoying our last few weeks of Term 3 before the school holidays kick off & our OOSHies have been busy having a blast! Some of our recent highlights include a bubble dance party, DIY galaxy play dough, minute to win it games, puffy paint, chalk & glitter art, a sunny afternoon of outside games & icy poles & of course our pancake breakfasts 🥞

💙 Trying lots of different activities like these builds creativity, confidence & a love of having a go, helping our OOSHies feel excited to come to Active OOSH Old Bar every day.

🧩 These varied experiences helped children become confident & involved learners, exploring new sensory play, games & creative art, aligning with My Time, Our Place: confident & involved learners.

ℹ️ Our pancake breakfasts are prepared by our educators, with OOSHies joining in for the fun parts like choosing & adding their toppings.

💡 Did you know? Offering a wide range of hands on experiences like these supports the learning outcomes in My Time, Our Place & helps meet the National Quality Standard for the educational program & practice.

Recapping Our Child Protection Week! ⭐

✨ This week we celebrated Child Protection Week, with everyday conversations about how OOSHies can stay protected at home, at school, online & out in public. We talked about safety circles & the safe people in our lives, consent & privacy & the rules & boundaries that help keep us safe, from wearing sunscreen to always wearing a helmet. OOSHies also took part in hands on activities including making their own safety plans, working through discussion cards on safe versus unsafe scenarios, joining a 'My Body My Choice' collaborative colouring in & decorating our child protection banner together as a group.

💙 Teaching children about safety circles, consent & boundaries gives them the tools & confidence to recognise unsafe situations & know who to turn to for help. It's why our educators make these conversations a priority all year round, not just this week.

🦋 These activities helped children build a strong sense of identity, learning to understand consent, personal boundaries & who they can trust, aligning with My Time, Our Place: a strong sense of identity.

💡 Did you know? Conversations & activities like these support the learning outcomes in My Time, Our Place & help meet the National Quality Standard for children's health & safety.

The Amazing Race Hits Active OOSH Old Bar! 🏁

✨ Today's Game Show Week activity was based on The Amazing Race! The children raced through the school in teams, completing challenges, collecting clues & solving riddles as they tried to be first across the finish line.

🤝 Racing as a team pushed the children to work together, communicate & support each other to reach the finish line, building the connected, collaborative thinking My Time, Our Place calls being connected with & contributing to our world.

💙 Activities like this build teamwork, communication & problem-solving skills, all while keeping the kids active & having fun.

💡 Team challenges build collaboration & communication skills from My Time, Our Place & help meet the National Quality Standard for a great educational program.

🚩 This is all part of our Game Show Week! Next up is Taskmaster Challenge Day, so stay tuned!

A Week of Book Week Magic at Active OOSH Old Bar! 📚✨

✨ Last week the children got stuck into a range of Book Week activities. They created The Very Hungry Caterpillar paper chains, wrote silly stories & Mad Libs, then designed their own DIY bookmarks. The week wrapped up with Harry Potter Day, where Professor Minerva McGonagall dropped in for a game of binball with the kids!

🎤 Through storytelling, writing & sharing ideas together, the kids practiced expressing themselves in fun new ways, exactly the kind of skill-building My Time, Our Place calls being an effective communicator.

💙 Activities like these build a love of reading & confidence putting ideas into words, skills that help kids well beyond the classroom.

💡 Storytelling & imaginative play like this support the learning outcomes in My Time, Our Place & help meet the National Quality Standard for a great educational program.

Science Week Sparks Curiosity at Active OOSH Old Bar! 🧬🧪

🧩 Last week we dived into hands-on science experiments & exploration, building the kind of curiosity & problem-solving that My Time, Our Place calls "confident & involved learners."

✨ We celebrated National Science Week by trying all sorts of experiments together! We made our own slime, built volcano cups, watched travelling rainbows, explored fizzy sensory trays & launched mentos & coke rockets. We also enjoyed a pancake breakfast, where Educator Charli earned the title of best pancake chef ever 👩🏼‍🍳 & we got outside as much as we could between the rain for dancing & showing off our playground skills.

💙 Hands-on science like this gets kids thinking, testing & experimenting, building key STEM skills through play.

ℹ️ Educators provide extra hands-on support during the trickier steps for experiments like the volcano reactions.
