Uluru Painting Project with Mrs Juls

Over the last few weeks during After School Care, the children have been working on a beautiful group project with Mrs Juls – painting Uluru.

It’s been such a lovely and calming activity, with the kids really taking their time and putting so much care into each part of the painting. Along the way, they’ve also had some great chats about the importance of Uluru and why it’s such a special place.

Zuccoli OSHC Enrolment Information – We are at capacity

Zuccoli OSHC opened in 2021, originally licensed for 135 children. In 2023, we expanded our space to include the stage area, library and music room increasing our licensed capacity to 208 children.

We currently support 256 enrolments, including casual placements and operate at full capacity daily. While we are proud to be one of the largest OSHC Primary School providers in the region, we are unable to exceed our licensed limit and no further physical expansion is possible at this time.

There is a waitlist for new enrolments, however:

• It can take longer than six months for a placement to become available
• Being on the waitlist does not guarantee a placement within the year

If you would like your child to be added to the waitlist, please fill in the form below:

This challenge is shared across the Palmerston area, with many OSHC services also at capacity. Despite rapid growth, our team continues to deliver exceptional care, supported by ongoing staff training aligned with National Quality Standards. We now employ 23 dedicated Educators to meet staff-to-child ratio requirements.

For Vacation Care, placements have increased from 80 to 110 this year to better support our families.

Looking ahead to 2026, siblings of currently enrolled children will be given priority for enrolment.

We thank our families for their continued support and understanding as we do all we can to meet the needs of our growing community.
