Adamstown OOSH
Quality Out of School Hours Education and Care
Meet the Team
At Adamstown OOSH we believe the educators at our service are our greatest resource.
Bringing with them an array of skills and interests, our educators strive to make the Adamstown OOSH community safe and engaging. In line with NSW legislation, all educators have a valid Working With Children Check (WWCC) and understand their role and responsibility in mandatory reporting. Many of our staff are also certified to provide first aid, allergy and anaphylaxis treatment, and asthma treatment.
Adamstown OOSH provides training and professional development to all our educators making sure quality education and care is provided to the children in our service. New employees are partnered with experienced educators to provide comprehensive on-the-job training on policies and procedures related to children’s health and safety, food preparation, and creating interest-based, child-led programming. External training and courses are offered throughout the year targeting identified areas of improvement or interest.
