Senior Leadership Team
Amii
Director
Hello! I am Amii Marchant and I am the new director of PECC from January 2023.
I completed my Bachelor of Teaching/Bachelor of Early Childhood studies at Newcastle University in 2008. I have worked in both long day care settings and community preschools since completing my degree.
I believe as the director of the service it is my responsibility to uphold PECC’s philosophy and be the face of the centre. I am proud to be part of such an amazing service and work with educators who strive for the best for the beautiful children in our community.
Bronnie
Assistant Director
I have been employed at Parkes Early Childhood Centre since October 2002. In 2006, I gained a Diploma in Children’s Services and, in 2013, graduated from Charles Sturt University after completing a Bachelor of Teaching (Birth to 5 years).
In late 2024 I accepted the role as Assistant Director.
I believe that all children should experience early childhood education in a high-quality service that is rich in experiences and opportunities, and that they have the right to feel safe and nurtured both inside and outside of their home environments.
I feel an immense pride in working at Parkes Early Childhood Centre, a place with a long history of generations of families, and, for families of the future.
