You will assist in developing strong partnership with families, including creating and facilitating fair input, communication and information sharing with all parents/carers. You will contribute to the planning of a play-based curriculum that offers rich opportunities to equip our children with the skills, attributes, and dispositions necessary for them to thrive in an ever-changing world, meeting the needs of the individual child and have a positive attitude towards working with children.
