Another childcare centre added to accused paedophile's list of workplaces
Alleged Melbourne paedophile Joshua Dale Brown worked at an additional daycare centre that has not been listed by authorities online, bringing the total centres he worked at to 24. It comes after four more childcare centres were revealed on Tuesday, broadening the scope of the police investigation. Childcare giant G8 contacted parents on Tuesday, advising them that the 26-year-old worked at World of Learning in Point Cook, in Melbourne's west, on August 24, 2023. 'Based on our review of our records, there are no records of Mr Brown working at World of Learning Point Cook on any other day. This information has been provided to Victoria Police,' G8 chief executive Pejman Okhovat said in the email to parents. The company also apologised for not providing the information sooner. 'In the interest of transparency, it was important we inform you of this information as soon as we could and apologise that we were unable to provide it earlier. 'In light of this new information about Mr Brown's presence at World of Learning Point Cook, the Victorian government and Victoria Police may contact you with further information or recommendations and we want to prepare you for that. We don't have any information from any Government authorities to indicate when or how this might occur.' Neither the Victorian government nor Victoria Police have added World of Learning to their official list of Brown's workplaces on their websites.
