Approval conditions

This service is approved to provide education and care to children from birth up to and including over preschool age, not including school children. The approved provider must ensure that the mirrors and CCTV cameras and monitors installed at the service are constantly maintained and operational. This is to ensure the facilitation of adequate supervision of children at all times they are being educated and cared for at the service, having regard to the need to maintain the rights and dignity of the children, as required under regulation 115 of the Education and Care Services National Regulations. The approved provider must ensure that no outdoor play equipment or natural vegetation is placed within one metre of the perimeter fencing of any children’s outdoor play space on Level 1 and Level 2. An adequate amount of healthy live plants in a variety of species and sizes is maintained at all times, in the children’s outdoor play areas across all 3 levels of the service premises, ensuring children are afforded opportunities to explore and experience the features of a natural environment as required under Regulation 113 of the Education and Care Services National Regulations. As part of the requirement to conduct three (3) monthly emergency and evacuation procedures rehearsals in accordance with regulation 97(3) of the Education and Care Services National Regulations the approved provider must, from the date of the initial service approval, engage an appropriate expert in emergency procedures, a fire safety advisor or fire safety engineer to observe and report on one rehearsal (including any proposed actions to improve evacuation procedures) within the first three months of the service’s operation, and then at least annually thereafter. A copy of each annual evacuation outcome report, including any recommendations for actioning, is to be supplied to the Regional Office of the Regulatory Authority in which the service is located within 7 days upon receipt of the report by the approved provider. At all times, at least one additional staff member, above the required educator-to-child ratio, must be available for each room where non-ambulant children are provided with education and care on Level 1 and Level 2, to assist in evacuating children during rehearsals and in the event of an emergency. It is a condition of the service waiver that the approved provider must utilise 238.32m² of covered space on Level 1, to satisfy part of the unencumbered outdoor space requirements.
