Camp Australia

As 2024 comes to a close, we are proud to celebrate an incredible milestone—30 years of delivering quality Outside School Hours Care across Australia.   This year has been a tribute to the children we have inspired, the futures we have helped shape, and the communities we have had the privilege to support.    Across Australia, our team members celebrated this milestone in countless ways—sharing stories, hosting celebratory parties, creating memorable experiences for children, and reflecting on the impact of three decades of service. #OSHC #learning #education Warren Jacobson Igor Merkin Alissa Taylor Craig Stewart Peter Lane Tim Naylor Paula Mayson Carole Priol Chelsea Daly Raksha Parsnani Brittney Burgess Cassandra Ware Iain Dennis Kellie Perren Jonathan Tannoury Gwen Stocks Sabrina Hanna Nathan Platus Neval Ferman

As we wrap up the year, we are taking a moment to celebrate 30 incredible years of OSHC. Our industry has evolved into an important part of child development, redefining its role in education and the wider school community. Today, OSHC is much more than care. It is a dynamic, enriching space where carefully crafted learning experiences support the freedom and flexibility children need to explore their interests and creativity. From STEM projects to creative arts, physical activities, virtual reality and social play, OSHC is now an essential extension of a child's learning environment—nurturing curiosity, developing life skills, and building connections. #OSHC #innovation #learning #education Warren Jacobson Igor Merkin Alissa Taylor Craig Stewart Peter Lane Paula Mayson Tim Naylor Carole Priol Jarrad O'Brien Sabrina Hanna Chelsea Daly Brittney Burgess Cassandra Ware Iain Dennis Jonathan Tannoury Kellie Perren Gwen Stocks Nathan Platus Victorian Principals Association Henry Grossek Matt Coney Deborah Grossek Campbell McKay Adam Downes Andrew Dalgleish Marie Rivera

At Camp Australia, we are proud to support initiatives like 𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗼𝘁 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱—reminding us all that mental health matters, every single day. This October, our teams came together, walking over 15,000 kilometres and raising an incredible $30,000 to support mental health awareness. For many of us, these walks became more than just steps on a path; they became moments to reflect, connect, and find purpose. As Luciana Panzarino shared, "Daily walks have become my non-negotiable—a time to clear the mind and set the tone for the day." And as Tami Tregellas said, "Walking together, we create opportunities to start the conversation and, just as importantly, to keep it going." With every step, we are moving closer to breaking the silence surrounding mental health and ensuring everyone feels seen, heard, and supported. Thank you to our teams across Australia for showing what is possible when we walk forward together. #ONEFOOTFORWARD #OSHC #Wellbeing Warren Jacobson Igor Merkin Alissa Taylor Craig Stewart Peter Lane Tim Naylor Paula Mayson Sabrina Hanna Carole Priol Brittney Burgess Chelsea Daly Neval Ferman Cassandra Ware Kellie Perren Iain Dennis Jonathan Tannoury Gwen Stocks Nathan Platus Marie Rivera Black Dog Institute Julieanne Mortimer
