Keeping imagination alive in Primary School kids!

Kids spend most of the day in classrooms learning concepts and practising skills. But if you wander past the school at lunchtime, you’ll see them gallivanting through the playground kicking a ball or setting up a “shop” in the sandpit. Kids inherently want to roam and explore using their imagination, and we are keen to strengthen this practice at OSHC. We make it a priority to “lighten up” as much possible, giving the kids a chance to tell us what activities they’d like to see in OSHC for the next week or month, rather than our team always setting the schedule. We think this approach not only enables kids to think freely and imaginatively but it also sparks their curiosity to learn
