Hello
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post so sorry if it isn't!
I am currently studying my diploma so I have my student blue card, however I have the opportunity to go on as relief at my local Kindergarten.
Being that I am actually working towards being a kindergarten teacher I believe this will help.
Is it possible to get a working blue card being as relief? I do have another centre to put my name down as relief also.
The teacher/director at my preferred kindergarten has said she will fill in any paperwork I need.
Should I do this? Will it be valid?

Regards
Shantel

Yeah before you can start working with children itself you need to hold a valid blue card. So,you must get the necessary paperwork and get it done... Then this will enable you to work as a relief. Your student one doesn't apply you have to submit another application form...

Thanks L.A
I know the student card won't cut it to work but can you just get a card doing relief. I looked on the site and it said working one day a month for 6 months but what happens if you don't work that?
