Job Description

When my educators keep wondering, I keep discovering.

n

They notice what I enjoy.

n

They follow my questions.

n

They make space for my culture, my ideas, my voice and my way of learning.

n

They see I am not just playing. I am thinking, testing, imagining, moving, feeling and growing.

n

At Only About Children Camberwell, you can help guide that kind of practice.

n

We're looking for a reflective, inspiring and practice-focused Educational Leader.

About our Camberwell campus

n

At Camberwell, my day feels modern, busy and full of learning. I arrive on Toorak Road, close to gardens, train stations, trams and parking. The campus feels polished and well set up, with spaces that help children learn in different ways.

n

I explore nine indoor rooms, including kindergarten spaces for building, numbers, words and art. Outside, I can play in refreshed yards with sand, climbing, slides and a veggie patch. I can hear many languages, follow my interests and feel capable in a campus full of ideas.

n
