Looking for a chance to bring your knowledge and creativity to an environment where you’ll be truly valued? Excited by the chance to shape pedagogy and practice in your room? Interested in creating a curriculum that aligns with children’s needs, interests and ideas? Then we’d love to talk to you about which of our amazing opportunities would be the best fit for you.
As an Early Childhood Teacher, you’ll inspire a love of learning in children and foster their development through purposeful, intentional teaching practices that are delivered with creativity and energy. You will build meaningful relationships with families, so each child has a strong sense of belonging that supports them to thrive. Your love of teaching will be reflected in how you mentor and guide educational practices in your room, and in your work with the broader centre leadership team to develop, review, and implement high-quality early learning programs, to ensure you’re achieving optimal outcomes for children.
About Goodstart Blakeview:
Goodstart Early Learning Blakeview is in Adelaide’s North. Located opposite Blakeview Primary School and Trinity College. Caters for 79 children. The centre is open from 6.30am to 6.30pm, Monday to Friday. A very family orientated early learning centre, the caring, long term, dedicated educators create a homey atmosphere within the centre. Many friendships have flourished and from this they find that families return as additions are made to their family.
One of the activities that sets them apart is their morning breakfast, not only for the children but for parents that may be in a rush on their way to work. This is just one example of the many ways they aim to make families feel like they are a part of their child’s day. ✨Meet the Team at Blakeview – click here to watch a video introducing some of the team at our centre.
