About the role
Our client runs a popular early-year learning service catering to 130 children.
On-site, you will find various animals (cow, sheep, alpaca, pig, goats, rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens, ducks, turkeys and a pony).
Children can explore the open farm spaces by going on tractor/ trailer rides or walking through the property to engage with the animals and vegetation.
There is a full-time gardener that children engage with each week and a vegetable garden that needs careful watering and nurturing!
This purpose-built centre has abundant outdoor play areas with separate age-appropriate natural play spaces.
The outdoor environments promote children's exploration of their senses and encourage them to interact with the environment as a natural part of their education.
Each year, Educators are provided with a choice of age groups to work with!
