Are you ready to make a difference that lasts a lifetime?

**Help shape the future of children in our care**

As our highly valued Director Teacher with our Palm Beach team, you’ll nurture an inclusive, collaborative and supportive team culture where everyone can belong, grow and thrive.

The kindergarten is situated in the grounds of Palm Beach State School and we are fortunate to be able to make use of its grounds and facilities from time to time. Not only do we meet the needs of children in our immediate area, we also attract enrolments from families across a broad geographic areas due to the highly regarded reputation of C&K kindergartens.

The Palm Beach Kindergarten is a purpose-built, two unit building with an outdoor learning environment focusing on natural and open-ended play spaces. C&K’s approach to outdoor learning environments reflects contemporary research which states that natural play spaces improve children’s cognitive development, reduce stress, foster imagination, creativity, collaboration, language and improves awareness and reasoning skills.

You’ll help shape the future of children in our care by taking full ownership of the centre’s operation, documentation and program delivery while building great relationships with our families and the wider community.

- First Aid, CPR and Asthma and Anaphylaxis certification.
- Valid Blue Card and current Police Check (within three months or willing to obtain these).
- A collaborative mindset - when you join C&K, you join a village of good-hearted, talented people, so you can lean on them as they lean on you.

Your strong knowledge of the National Quality Framework and Standards and the Early Years Learning Framework will be crucial to your success.

**Why C&K?**

Every C&K career helps children belong and grow. We want the same for you.

Here are some things we hope you’ll love about working with us:

- **For Children **Joining C&K means impacting a child’s life journey for the time they spend with us and long after they leave. By nurturing a love of learning in our play-based environments, you’re doing something that truly matters - for now and for life.
