Beaconsfield Kindergarten Inc is looking for a capable Early Childhood Teacher to work in a collaborative teaching role to implement innovative play based curriculum. We proudly offer high-quality educational programs for both three and four-year-old's across two campuses. With two years of funded kindergarten now available for both three- and four-year-old's, we’re excited to guide children through a unique and enriching two-year experience.

The journey begins at our Year One campus at Woods St, where children will explore, play and build strong early foundations. They’ll then progress to our Year Two campus at O’Neil Rd, where they’ll have the opportunity to deepen their learning, strengthen their understanding, and refine important skills as confident, capable learners setting them up for a smooth and successful transition to school.

About Beaconsfield Kindergarten

Beaconsfield Kindergarten prides itself on providing an environment where everybody belongs. We are managed by a volunteer Committee of Management made up of parents and guardians of enrolled children, supported by our Centre Manager, educators, and office administrator. Maintaining our independent status keeps us closely connected to our community and ensures our kindergarten operates in the best interests of children and families. Beaconsfield Kindergarten achieved an Exceeding standard in 2024 in all 7 areas and prides itself on working as a collaborative team to provide a safe, welcoming and engaging environment for all.

Our Commitment to Inclusion

We committed to the cultural safety of all children, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children. We acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples as Australia’s First People and value the unique experiences and contributions each family brings. Respect, acceptance, and inclusion are central to our philosophy, and we celebrate every learner’s strengths and differences.

Our Educational Philosophy

We understand that learning is deeply social. Guided by the EYLF and VEYLDF, our educators foster strong, respectful relationships as the foundation for all learning. Through joint attention, shared thinking, and responsive interactions, we create meaningful contexts that support children’s wellbeing, confidence, and engagement.

Our play-based curriculum, developed in close collaboration with families, blends child-directed, guided, and educator-led experiences. Long periods of uninterrupted play, group experiences, and responsive eating routines form the rhythm of our day. Our Bush Kinder program extends this learning beyond the classroom, offering opportunities for exploration, connection with nature, and the development of resilience, problem-solving skills, and environmental awareness.

We nurture each child’s agency and curiosity, encouraging them to be active, engaged participants in their learning. Through play, exploration, and shared experiences, learners build confidence, creativity, and a lifelong love of learning.

Partnerships and Professional Growth

We value the learning that occurs within each child’s family and view collaboration with families as essential to delivering high-quality programs. Our educators are committed to ongoing professional learning, reflective practice, and teamwork. Individual growth and collective collaboration are encouraged and supported.
