Description
Opportunities to work for a community run non-for-profit service as an Early Childhood Teacher with long standing early childhood professionals do not come often, especially in a supportive and heart-centred culture.
2025 is an exciting chapter for an ECT at Poets Grove as we roll our canal kinder - as part of our in-nature pedagogy. Supported by our experienced Educational Leaders, you will be responsible for one of our multi-age sessional groups. You may be a new graduate, experienced teacher and even have had experience working in a bush kinder or beach kinder program.
This role is a part-time role, working minimum 24 hours across 4 days of the week during school term only for a fixed 12 month term with the possibility of extending the contract. As you will be paid under VECTEA you will be provided with generous non-contact time, school holidays off and 3 organisational days.
If you are positive, energetic, and have a sense of humour or just love having fun, then this is a place for you.
