Camp Australia review: bad staff 6

Wanneroo Area. There is 2 camp Australia's in this area at two of the schools and i'm absolutely amazed that the staff are either 15 years old or over 60. My children after sitting down at school all day then have to sit down and "draw" or colour in. They told me that they are given a whole carrot and maybe a small apply to eat. That's it.! they come home hungry and bored! There is a large oval right there and it's ever used. Whats worse is the lady in charge leaves the children to go outside the premises leaving the children unsupervised to put rubbish in the large skip bins that is at least 5 meters away. I have left this before and after school care center and recommend others do the same. My complaints have not been dealt with, and so i had no choice but to leave.

Hocking Primary School- camp Australia
The camp Australia staff are not enthusiastic about their jobs by looking dull, uninterested and quiet frankly they look like they don't want to be there. I have seen their boxes of fruit that have been delivered Monday in the afternoon and continues to stay in the cardboard boxes all week, even in summer.
Also having my children attend Hocking, the camp Australia staff use the Hocking resources and disrespect the equipment, that should be for the children that attend Hocking and not to be use by a business that is for profit. when they have the money to purchase their own resources.

I totally agree with everything above. Camp Australia is a nightmare. My kid has been at the alamanda camp Australia campus for a month now but I am already looking for alternatives. They don't allow home food, and what they provide to the kids for afternoon tea is a joke. Small pieces of cut fruit that has turned black. God knows when they cut it and how hygienic it is. To add to it they serve it in a single sheet of tissue paper. The child has to sit on the floor and eat. They don't provide tables or chairs. To top it all the staff is horrible to talk to. Rude and misbehaving staff today told me that they won't even allow a whole unpeeled banana from home as they don't know what board it was kept on to cut and what knife was used. When I exclaimed its whole banana, the reply was that they don't know what fridge it was in. I never knew even fridges cause allergies! I have never encountered a worst place to leave your child in.

As a Co coordinator of a school run service I am horrified by the stories I hear from parents and staff from Camp Australia. Please be aware there is strict regulations to how food is served and where children eat. It is important that families contact the Department with their concerns particularly when it relates to how your children are treated. Nothing will change unless parents take action.
