Our impact on
young people

Our OSHC programs focus on the lifelong benefits of children’s love of learning so they grow to better understand their own unique capacity to learn and to thrive in the process.

We also promote healthy physical and mental habits through programs that benefit the mind, body and spirit of children from a young age.

The impact of our OSHC services on local communities in the Northern Territory contributes to solving long-term societal challenges faced by young people today.
