City of Whittlesea

The main learning is traffic safety and awareness. I have a difficult crossing with drivers often well over the speed limit, plus a heavy traffic load.
I need to watch the traffic build-up to keep it moving, parents parking illegally and blocking view of traffic, and speed and awareness of drivers, as well as being alert of people nearing the crossing.
One cannot always expect children to be aware of rules - to stop and wait, or for cars drivers to be alert - sometimes you feel you need eyes in the back of your head.
I feel I do this job well, gently teaching children I see daily, but have had little regulatory support to slow traffic, or make drivers aware of the crossing risk.
The support among my fellow employees has been excellent, but management is slow to respond to potential vehicle issues, and have little actual control (it is a police issue).
The best part of the job is seeing the children and their parents daily, and getting to know them as friends.

typical day tiring rewarding  and fun a new thing everyday from children parents or management or from myself being creative  management most of the time professional and supportive  hardesgt part of the job telling parents if something gone wrong for the day and lokking after sick children when parents are not supportive reassuring new parents that the child will be cared for efficiently whilst in care  the most enjoyable part of the jopb hugs and smiles from the children in carre

I've worked for the City of Whittlesea since 2004. I'm a hard worker and loved my job, but when I injured my back while working after my back surgery, they didn't want to help me to stay employed with them. They gave me a choice to do a traineeship or be out of work. I was devastated that they treated me so bad. At the time I had no choice but to take the traineeship. Now I am nearly at the end of my traineeship and there are no jobs available here, so it looks like I will have to move on to work somewhere else.

Working for the City of Whittlesea in a local government youth services I found it very rewarding to witness so many different types of programs which help young people develop. Hold a specialised Indigenous port-folio was also very exciting because I got to develop and deliver programs that were very rewarding.

Working there was a relaxing demanding job with no specif deadlines for projects. The job was mainly researching and creating new method of monitoring energy over a set period of time and  finding different companies that record and display energy uses in real time. I really enjoyed working there as it deals with new and exciting technology that will soon be used all over Victoria.

I teach dance on a Wednesday afternoon.

The group of people are really nice. They are regulars and commit. 

They message if they cannot make it. 

Not much correspondence from the city of Whittlesea ,

Not asking how things are going or if we continue next term.

I was predominantly responsible for the investigation of illegal land clearing and construction issues.  This included site inspections, interviews, report writing, issuing of infringements and prosecutions in court where necessary.

This was my first job and the Asset Management team was so welcoming that I felt like home. They promoted self-development opportunities and were quite helpful in sharing resources to expand my knowledge in GIS.

Loved working for this local council, Unfortunately not a lot of opportunity to advance.

There were constant restructures which did make the working environment stressful for majority of staff.
