The OSHC Conference 2026 (26 May and 27 May) was full of deep discussion, growth and fun – and we’re still buzzing from it!

Thank you to all the presenters, organisers, and attendees for making this year’s conference so impactful.

This year, we heard from an incredible mix of speakers unpacking the biggest topics in OSHC.

We covered the necessity of risky play, regulation strategies that work, authentic relationship building, child rights in practice, keeping children safe, educator wellbeing, community partnerships, emerging research in OSHC, supporting Indigenous literacy and so much more.

Remember, if you haven’t already, let us know how you felt about the conference. We use your feedback to develop and refine our professional development events.
