Explorers is blessed with educators who have remarkably long tenures, both at the centre and in the industry. They truly are industry leaders, with some educators even having the honour of attending the Australian Reggio Emilia delegation in the past. The kinder teachers, room leads, and educators who have worked with my child are all truly best in class, wholeheartedly invested in my child’s well-being. They have advocated for us, guided us, and supported us through numerous developmental milestones, helping our child to truly thrive.
Their generosity with their time has been immense, especially when additional support was needed. They have catered to the individual needs of each child, while still respecting the group dynamic. I cannot express enough how grateful I am to be part of this wonderful community. My heartfelt best wishes go out to the centre. Any child fortunate enough to find a place in this centre will undoubtedly be lucky. Please, make the most of and engage with this amazing community—it can be as wonderful as you wish it to be.
A great workplace to be.
