We’re on the lookout for enthusiastic and energetic educators to join Our Lady of the Angels OSHC in Wavell Heights! If you love working with primary school-aged kids and want to create a fun, supportive environment where they can learn, play, and grow, this is the perfect role for you.

Located on the grounds of Our Lady of the Angels Primary School, we provide before school care, after school care, and vacation care for up to 165 children. Our program is packed with engaging activities like craft, cooking, gardening, sports, group games, and homework club. We also serve healthy breakfasts in the morning and tasty snacks in the afternoon, with occasional treats chosen by the kids.

Mornings start in our main building before our children are walked to their classrooms and Wavell State School children begin their walk to school. In the afternoons, we care for children across two spaces—our senior and junior buildings—where we offer afternoon tea and a mix of structured and free play activities. During vacation care, we plan exciting programs to keep the fun going even when school’s out!

We’re looking for dedicated educators who can bring energy and creativity to each session, ensuring children feel safe, engaged, and excited to be here. If you're ready to make a positive impact and have a blast while doing it, we’d love to hear from you!
