The Centre:
Guardian Coorparoo is a 113-place centre with seven inspiring indoor learning spaces and a beautiful outdoor environment filled with shady trees, multi-level play areas, veggie gardens, and even our own chickens.
We’re proud of our strong sense of community and culture. Each morning, our whole centre comes together for an Acknowledgment of Country, and throughout the year we mark milestones and events such as birthdays, qualification achievements, ANZAC Day, and cultural celebrations — because we believe community is at the heart of education.
With a team that speaks Spanish, Vietnamese, Mandarin, Tagalog, Arabic, Assyrian, and English, you’ll join a diverse, inclusive workplace that values different perspectives and voices.
To make your day easier, the centre has free off-street parking on Chatsworth Road, with additional street parking available on Waverly Road behind the centre.
