As Childcare Educators our staff pride themselves on having a strong social conscience, that it is embedded into our educational programs, environments and everyday approach to wellbeing. We support all children to become socially aware citizens with a sense of appreciation for healthy nutrition, sustainable practices and their wider community.
Our educators take into account children’s learning styles, abilities, interests, linguistic and cultural diversity and family circumstances when planning and implementing learning programs. We support and respect the history and backgrounds of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and aim to foster each child’s sense of identity.
All staff hold valid Working with Children Checks/Cards and all Responsible Persons (placed in charge of the day-to-day running of the service) have current ACECQA approved First Aid, Emergency Asthma and Anaphylaxis qualifications.
It is a requirement that all early childhood education and care staff, visitors, students and contractors visiting our service, are fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
