What you love about working in this organisation:

I have been the preschool teacher here for the last five years and this has been a very rewarding time for me. I have had many opportunities to for training and development to support an integrated service. I have been part of ongoing projects and professional development including The Universal Access project and the Early language development project. I have had the opportunity to travel to Darwin to the Early Childhood conference and to Reggio Emilia in Italy to train at the International Loris Malaguzzi centre. These opportunities are unique and help me to understand the quality of programs in services such as this one.

I am always striving to improve my teaching practices and to run a quality program for the children who attend the pre-school environment. The training opportunities  support me to do this and I can see how our programs have improved from these experiences.

I really enjoy working with children and supporting them to test their ideas and to try new things. I enjoy taking them on excursions to explore the community where they live and grow.
