This week we introduce you to TASK (The After School Klub) an outside school hours care service operating in the high demand area of Sydney's Inner West. TASK was set up by local parents, Madi Morrison and Suzanne who identified an unmet demand for after school care and were able to plug that gap.
What is your full name (please include any nicknames you have been christened with by the children) and age?
Our full name is The After School Klub or TASK. Children who attend our sessions are called TASKers. We had our first birthday last week and boy are we growing up fast.
Which centre do you work in? How many staff and children are in the centre?
TASK operates at two primary schools in the afternoons - Stanmore Public and Wilkins Public and there are 170 children attending from K-6 TASK every week. We have 60 TASKers at Stanmore and 110 at Wilkins. On any one afternoon we have between 2 and 4 staff. TASK also runs holiday programs for primary-school aged children.
