We are excited to offer a two-year opportunity for a Certificate III holder to take on an Apprentice position leading our Extended Kindergarten program at C&K Coorparoo and gaining your Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care with the C&K College as you go, all funded by C&K.

- Paid time during your work hours to support your study;
- Generous non-contact time to support your planning and reflection for the Extended Kindergarten practice.
- Bespoke support from your dedicated C&K College trainer invested and committed to your success.

Join our passionate team at **C&K Coorparoo Kindergarten**, where nature meets education in a lush tropical setting developed over 50 years. Our stunning playgrounds provide the perfect backdrop for children to explore, learn, and grow through play. Inspired by our visionary director and the collaborative spirit of our colleagues, we are dedicated to creating stimulating indoor and outdoor environments. If you're drawn to a workplace that values both the beauty of nature and the warmth of a supportive team, C&K Coorparoo Centre is the place for you.

- Find a healthy work-life balance with parental leave, return-to-work support, and family-friendly priority access to C&K childcare centres.
- We fully fund your Blue Card, Police Check, First Aid, CPR, and Asthma and Anaphylaxis certification.

**What you’ll bring**

You will bring a passion for achieving long-lasting, high-quality outcomes for children, their families and the community alongside proven experience as an Educator in a Kindergarten or Childcare setting.

To thrive and succeed in this role, you will have or be willing to work towards:
