Staff

Our Preschool staff bring a wide range of experience to the service, which combine to provide a broad spectrum of expertise and talents within the Preschool. 

The current Preschool Director holds a degree qualification – Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood & Primary). Each service must also appoint an Educational Leader with suitable experience to mentor and support other educators.  Other staff members must hold a minimum qualification of Certificate III Early Childhood Education and Care (previously known as Children’s Services).

Currently Peak Hill Preschool has two teachers with Education degrees, and one DIploma recognised educator (with Certificate III ECEC), one Cert 3 ECEC educator and one trainee in Certificate III Early Childhood Education and Care. While it is a requirement that there is a person on site at all times who holds a current first aid certificate and approved asthma and anaphylaxis training, all staff at Peak Hill Preschool Kindergarten Inc hold the current required first aid qualifications.
