camp australia school holiday care
3
On Monday 8/4/19 My daughter attended Lyndhurst Primary school where the Camp Australia was being held. When I picked up my daughter she was very distressed because while at school Holiday care there was a child in the group spitting in the faces of all of the children and behaving unruly. On Tuesday My daughter was again dropped off at Lyndhurst Camp Australia, I spoke to one of the carers in the morning when I dropped my son and daughter off about what had occurred the day before and I was assured that the parents and child had been spoken too. Later that day I picked up both of my children and when I entered the room my children came running to me very distressed telling me that my daughter was hit and pushed by a boy in the program and the same boy told my son he was going to slit his throat! I was disgusted and spoke immediately with a carer and although he was apologetic he really couldn't tell me what had been done to protect the children that are being subjected to the abuse and bullying. while I was there talking to the carer this boy was throwing food, a number of children are physically fighting it was an absolute circus. Later I was told by my kids that the "spitting" boy was again at the program on the second day and he was physically assaulting a young girl in the group and the carers had absolutely NO control over any of them what so ever. I cannot believe that these people can allow this type of environment, I feel terrible as a parent that I unknowingly subjected my kids to this for a whole day! I cant believe the parents weren't called to take these children home for the sake of all the other children.
