Bold new look for PCYC Queensland with the launch of Fun Squad

PCYC Queensland’s outside school hours care (OSHC) services have a ‘bright, bold new look’ known as Fun Squad. 

The Fun Squad program offers activities including pickleball, mindfulness, crafting, cooking, gardening and more, as well as the organisation’s leadership program for 5 to 11-year-olds, Cadet Club.

“We have experience and research behind us, and children and young people are at the centre of what we do at PCYC Queensland,” Fun Squad General Manager Bev Book said, adding that fun “fuels minds and friendships,” and that when activities are fun and engaging, they can increase wellbeing, confidence, and boost curiosity.

“We know what matters to parents is that their children are happy and thriving in a positive, nurturing and inclusive space – and what matters to children is, are we having fun?,” Ms Books continued.

“The Fun Squad provides both. We focus on sustainability, friendship, leadership, inclusivity, wellbeing and community spirit.”

“Our 750-person strong Fun Squad teams are backed by more than1,500 PCYC Queensland support staff, 2,700 volunteers and the Queensland Police Service. We are strong and well-supported.”

Fun Squad branding is bright and bold, to match the ethos of the program, and will be rolled out in all services across the state over the coming weeks.
