Are you a passionate Kaiako who is committed to providing quality education and care for children in a vibrant and inclusive community setting? Look no further!

At our centre, we prioritise the interests and needs of our children by shaping our curriculum around their curiosity. We believe in the power of community engagement, regularly organising excursions and fostering close connections to local events and happenings. Our multicultural environment celebrates diversity, with families from all over the world contributing to our rich tapestry of culture.

As part of our team, you'll have the opportunity to engage children in a variety of enriching activities, including dancing, music, yoga, cooking, and baking using produce from our community garden. Licenced for 71, we cater for 3 months to 5 years with three purpose-built areas. Our commitment to holistic development extends to our two beautiful outdoor areas, where children are encouraged to explore and thrive in a stimulating environment.

We are guided by our vision of Ā tatou manawa ora, where children and their families are valued as precious contributors to our centre family. Our core values of whānaungatanga and turangawaewae underpin everything we do, fostering strong relationships and a sense of belonging for all.

Our offer to you:

• A wonderful new team to work with in the beautiful township of Ashburton.
• A well-resourced centre to cater to your imagination and teaching.
• Competitive salary and a well-balanced lifestyle in one of the most stunning parts of Aotearoa!
