Job description

About This Role

Only About Children Cammeray - Educational Leader (Fixed-term Contract)

A Little Letter from Your Future Tiny Friends at Only About Children Cammeray:

Hi there, future grown-up friend,
We can't wait to meet you! The walls are shiny and tall at OAC Cammeray. The floors are great for tiny dancing feet. The gardens are for exploring hands, and the playgrounds are for climbing, jumping, and rolling in the sun.
The rooms full of songs, stories, blocks, and big splashes of paint. We imagine leaders who spark curiosity, guide big thinking, and help us discover the world around us.
But we can't start our adventure without you.
We need a leader with a big heart, a playful mind, and a passion for learning - someone who can inspire our educators, bring our curriculum to life, and create meaningful learning experiences for every child.
