Taiaotea Kindergarten Auckland

Certificated kindergarten teacher – Kaitiaki Kindergartens

An exciting opportunity has arisen at our lovely Browns Bay kindergarten for a teacher seeking a part-time teaching position. This is a one-year maternity leave position and will give the successful candidate excellent experience working in a high-functioning collaborative team. We require the person to begin work on Monday 10 February 2020. 

The kindergarten has a well-established place in the heart of its community with regular outings to a retirement village, the library and the beach. It is part of the Enviroschool network and is actively committed to the association’s vision for sustainable futures for all our tamariki. 

Children attend between the hours of 8.30am–2.30pm and teachers between 8am and 4.30pm. This position is for 28 hours 5 days per week. Teachers experience excellent working conditions under the Kindergarten Teachers' Collective Agreement (KTCA) (6 weeks' annual leave, 3 weeks' professional time, generous non-contact time) and the security of being part of a supportive association that schedules regular PLD and an annual conference in July.

We can offer a supported induction and mentoring programme to a provisionally certificated teacher that includes additional release time. We are keen to grow a new teacher but also experienced teachers will have the opportunity to teach and learn alongside a great team. 

We’d love to hear from you if you have the following:

• A commitment to making sure all children experience an exceptional early years’ learning programme
• A commitment to sustainability and an interest in Enviroschools
• A NZ recognised ECE teaching qualification
• Current NZ teacher certification
• Current first aid certificate and
• NZ citizenship/residency or hold a NZ work visa.

If you are interested in this great opportunity, please apply today.
