At St John's Lutheran Kindergarten, we’re not just offering a job—we’re inviting someone special to become part of our Kindy family. We are seeking a Diploma or Certificate III qualified Educator with a genuine heart for children to join us in a part-time role focused on Inclusion Support.
Nestled in the heart of Kingaroy, our Kindy is a warm, welcoming place where children are nurtured, inspired, and supported every day. We’re passionate about nature-based learning, inclusion, and culture—and we’re proud of the beautiful, enriching outdoor spaces that shape our learning environment.
One of our most treasured places is our Bush Tucker Garden—a living classroom developed over 7+ years. With winding walking tracks, art poles, a frog breeding pond, and a yarning circle, the garden is a powerful starting point for conversations about caring for Country, sustainability, and Indigenous knowledge. Through this space, our children connect with the rhythms of nature and the wisdom of the First Nations peoples, developing respect and wonder for the world around them.
