1. Creating Engaging Environments in OSHC

Are you struggling with your OSHC environments? Is your team at a loss as to how to set things up? Or perhaps your spaces are falling flat for your children or families... This session will get you thinking out of the square! Together we will delve into the many environments of OSHC and devise ways that your team can get the most out of what ever places you have.

 The Queensland Children’s Activities Network acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia, and recognise their continuing connection to culture, land, waterways and communities. We pay our respects to Elders past and present.
