Only About Children: Glebe

OAC Glebe is nestled on a peaceful, leafy street with a meaningful place in the local community. The campus has been renovated beautifully but still retains its charming features and heritage.

Our Education and Operations leaders have supported with organising the layout of this impressive space to effectively cater for up to 120 children per day (currently approx. 70 attending). We have kept original features such as a fireplace and wooden flooring to maintain an inviting and homely atmosphere. With 6 classrooms and 2 outdoor play spaces, children and educators at OAC Glebe have the resources needed to thrive!

Centre Director opportunity:

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a strong ECT or Diploma qualified advocate and leader to join the OAC family as Director of our wonderful Glebe service. Our friendly team of educators and passionate Assistant Director look forward to welcoming a new Centre leader.
