On 24 November 2025, another coloured sand recall was issued by the ACCC Product Safety.
Similar to the recent recall of potentially asbestos-contaminated sand, ACA NSW would like to ask early childhood education and care services to take precautionary actions to ensure that they too do not have these products.
This product would have been available for sale from 24 July 2023 to 24 November 2025.
The list of retailers who sold these products is also available. And given that list, it may be that your children's parents and families should be made aware of this product recall.
Should you have these products, stop using them immediately.

UPDATED IFA TEMPLATES ARE NOW ON OUR WEBSITE
As the 30 September deadline has now passed, any applications lodged after this date will no longer be eligible to receive back payment dated 2 December 2025.
From now on, providers will only be able to claim back pay from the date their applications are lodged or when their workplace instrument comes into effect.
The IFA templates have been updated to reflect these changes. Please ensure you are using the latest versions for all new applications.

    "I have always found the staff at Australian Childcare Alliance to be friendly, knowledgeable, professional and reliable.
It is great to have one source to go to for advice on industrial matters (including current wage rates), regulatory requirements, sample policies and procedures etc.
Also their webinars are very informative and helpful along with topical early childhood articles and updates on their website."
