Welcome to North West Sydney Regional network OOSH meeting!
Connect and Share
It was uplifting to catch up with the dedicated and passionate OOSH professionals across North West Sydney yesterday! Over 245 years of combined experience of working in OOSH. That’s incredible! I left feeling optimistic about our future hearing how these OOSHies responded to the constant changes facing our sector. I strongly believe that connecting and sharing our stories creates a great sense of community and togetherness!
These are the long stayers of our OOSH community along with many others.
Building a Strong Voice Together
There was so much robust discussion, at times utter frustration, about the way our sector is marginalised… However, the good news stories were also in full flow, stories of inspiration about how OOSH adds so many benefits to the lives of children.
We need to be respected for this work!
Make sure you stay connected to your local OOSH community. There is no one like another OOSHie to understand your work! Our stories are inspirational, challenging and the collective knowledge helps solve the issues!
It certainly made my day and I hope the same goes for all the OOSHies who attended!
The North West OOSH group meets once a term. Future dates:
- Thursday 6th June
- Thursday 29th August
- Thursday 21st November
Let us know if you would like Network to attend your regional network meeting.
