About Us & Our Purpose

MEET THE CUBBYHOUSE TEAM

TED

Ted gets that the coolest thing you can be is kind. A friend to everyone, Ted is a born team player who brings the party to the park every time! If Ted isn’t in the middle of a game of basketball, you’ll find him cheering everyone on from the sidelines. He’s a baller first and foremost, but he also loves kicking up the dust on his BMX, and big bowls of pasta.

OLLIE

Don’t be fooled by Ollie’s calm, quiet exterior - she’s the one most likely to be found scaling tree tops in the park, or dropping in at the skate bowl, where her skills attract the awe and admiration of all the other kids. When she’s not carving up the footpath, Ollie loves to chill at home with her Labrador puppy. She’s also the reigning Queen of the school Chess Club, and a connoisseur of cheese toasties.

Anyone who spends time in the park and at the cafe knows Cubbyhouse Canteen is a vital and integral part of Stonnington community life'
