Edge Early Learning Opens First Centres in North Queensland
24 August, 2022
In exciting news, Edge Early Learning has expanded into North Queensland after recently acquiring two sites at Maryborough and Tinana.
The two new centres will provide enriching learning experiences for up to 140 local children per day in the local community.
The centres feature spacious outdoor play areas with natural elements, water play, sand pits and vegetable gardens, while indoor features include homely age-specific classrooms and innovative learning resources.
For those interested in a career in childcare, there are a number of employment opportunities available at the centres, ranging from casual Educators up to a Centre Director position.
Edge is seeking applications from those within the local community from all walks of life who are passionate about making a difference in young lives and looking for a promising career.
“Our quest is to become Australia’s best in early childhood education by empowering our educators and providing them with the environment, resources, and support to create optimum learning opportunities for the children in their care,” Edge Early Learning People and Culture Manager Peita Heintzberger said.
“You don’t need to leave your prior skills, experience or passions at the door. We love bringing people on who have different backgrounds, who might love yoga or cooking, for example, and we look to see how we can incorporate those interests into our centres. We also offer traineeships where we pay people to come on board with us and either start or continue their qualifications.”
Renowned for our state-of-the-art facilities, quality education and care, Edge is equally as passionate about employing the right people for the job and believes it has set the foundation for high quality centres with an excellent team culture.
Staff are offered a wide range of benefits from 60% off childcare fees, above Award pay, paid attendance in all team meetings, school holiday leave for ECT’s, training and development, and traineeships. The minimum requirement to work at an Edge childcare centre, is a Certificate 3 qualification in Early Childhood.
Edge Early Learning Maryborough is located at 228 Ella St, Maryborough.
Edge Early Learning Tinana is located at 18 Woongool Rd, Tinana.
