    I think it may mean Network of Community Activities (NCA) and that the 'S' was probably a plural i.e. NCAs

    I hunted around and came up with the following:

    Network of Community Activities (NCA)

    Network acts as a link up for community activities and for Out of School Hours Care Services run by autonomous community groups and local councils. Network is committed to helping promote quality community based services for school aged children, including children with a disability. Network provides information advocacy, and support for:

    out of school and vacation care centres

    advice on funding/management

    community arts and activities

    child friendly environments

    activities for children with a disability

    community education and skills exchange

    information and resources.

    To contact NCA phone (02) 9212 3244 or email network@netoosg.org..au

    There was a reference to NCAs in the following too:

    Bit of a stab in the dark, but it looks to be a possibility.

    Good luck.
