The Opportunity

At Pelican Childcare Fairways, we are passionate about fostering encouragement and kindness! We are an 70 place Centre which provides quality programs in line with the new Early Learning Years Framework as well as a nurturing and engaging environment for our children to grow and develop. Our teaching philosophy is inclusivity for all children. We currently have a wonderful permanent full time opportunity for an experienced, fully registered Early Childhood Teacher.

This role is Permanent Full-Time, working 38 hours per week.

About Us

When you join G8 Education you will immerse yourself in our intensive and supportive Early Childhood Teacher (ECT) First Steps induction program. The ECT First Steps induction program has been designed to support you to provide quality education and care to the children in our centres, as they are the heart of all that we do. 

• Your program of support starts on the day you begin with G8, and continues throughout your first 3 months, allowing time off the floor to collaborate, learn, and grow professionally.
• You will be allocated your very own ECT Buddy who provides that extra layer of support as you settle into your role. Spend time in their centre and them in yours while you work together shoulder-to-shoulder.
• You will be invited to join our Community Connection Session and build relationships with other new ECTs across our network. This is also an opportunity to meet our Teacher Registration/ accreditation Team, our regionals Practice Partners and other Support Office SMEs.
• Complete your program with your personalised Development Plan outlining your ongoing professional development opportunities at G8.
