Too much Government over reach.
**OSHC SERVICES AT SPRING MOUNTAIN STATE SCHOOL**
Thank you to the families who have reached out to me regarding the closure of Out of School Hours Care (OSHC) services at Spring Mountain State School from 2027.
I appreciate the real distress this has caused especially for working families who rely on OSHC.
Following the many concerns raised, I reached out to Jabiru Spring Mountain and met with the Jabiru CEO, Peter Loughnane and Board Member Sara Harrup.
It is clear from our discussion that they wish to continue providing OSHC services at the school but are hampered by the lack of space being made available to them - and which is a legal requirement.
Whilst they have investigated community facility options, these are limited and as a not-for-profit organisation, they are also not financially viable.
While there is no actual requirement for schools to support OSHC, most of our schools in #jordan recognise the significant need for this service for their school community.
I have reached out to the school to try and find a solution, including the potential use of the school hall as an interim measure whilst we look at an alternate built solution.
I will keep trying, but ultimately these are operational matters for school Principals, and I do not have the authority to intervene or direct a school to provide a service.
Please reach out to me if you are an affected family as your representations will assist me in my ongoing advocacy. ... See MoreSee Less

Charlotte Hanley have you personally met Charis Mullen MP ? Because she genuinely cares about her electorate and is actively trying to do better for us. I barly even pay attention to which side our electorates are on anymore, I follow the ones who show they care, get out there in the community and try to make a change. Charis is one of them. A few of our locals actually are.
Hire a building the same as they use on worksites. ???
Would the P&C not take it on?

Just over a month into the 2026 school year and I have already received multiple complaints from local families and now media reports about our local school bus services in #Ipswich and #Logan.
Parents have advised that buses are frequently over capacity, with students standing in aisles, sitting on the stairs beside the driver or being left behind at stops.
There's no point engaging with the local bus companies and despite contacting Translink (who issue the contracts), the situation is not improving.
I have now written to the Minister for Transport and Main Roads (TMR) seeking an urgent review of affected school bus services across our region - to assess capacity and make necessary adjustments, including allocating additional buses or revised timetables.
Safe and reliable school transport must remain a priority, particularly in growth areas where families rely heavily on public transport. ... See MoreSee Less

Charis have you done anything about what was asked off you about Orion Train Station with cars using The Bus Way. ????? ??????
Imagine our disgust when our 10 year old was left at a bus stop this year in Ipswich! A bus stopped and she was told to wait there it was coming. It got to 830 the bus didnt come and I received a phone call from her distressed and crying. Luckily I had a friend grab her. Oh and this was the first day she was supposed to catch it independently!
My children get the bus in Ipswich. Happy to offer our experiences if you need.
