What OSHC services are saying
The highlight for many of us was the interactive activity where we created playdough and explored different creative activities designed to engage children and promote positive behaviours. This not only provided valuable tools we can incorporate into our practice but also gave us a chance to reflect on the way we guide and support children’s behaviour in a nurturing, creative way.
