About KU
KU Children's Services (KU) is proudly a not-for-profit and for-purpose organisation with over 130 years of experience delivering high-quality early childhood education.
Our vision is to lead and inspire young children's learning for life, and our purpose is to partner with families and communities to nurture children's learning, development and wellbeing.
About the Opportunities
We are excited to open our newest kindergarten on the New Biyala Primary School site in Armstrong Creek, just south of Geelong.
This purpose-built service will feature stunning, light-filled rooms and a vast outdoor play area designed to spark curiosity and inspire exploration.
This development responds to the growing needs of the local community and is part of the Victorian Government's Best Start, Best Life reforms.

You'll work set session times with no extended open hours, perfect for creating quality learning experiences while enjoying a healthy work-life balance.
We have a variety of permanent opportunities available, offering part-time or near full-time hours—so there's an option to suit your lifestyle and needs.
