About the role

Are you ready to welcome our newest learners into school life?

We are seeking an enthusiastic Year 0–1 teacher to join our warm, vibrant rural school. Positioned in a picturesque setting with expansive, well-resourced grounds, our school offers a fantastic environment where small class sizes allow you to make a deep impact on every child’s learning journey.

Considering a move from Early Childhood Education (ECE) to Primary? If you hold an ECE teaching qualification and full NZ registration, this position offers an ideal pathway into the primary sector! Your expertise in child development, play-based learning, and transition-to-school processes will be valued and supported by our collaborative team.

What sets our school apart:

  • Small class sizes: Realize the joy of teaching where you have the time and space to foster meaningful, individualized learning.
  • Supportive and collegial staff: Join a welcoming staff culture where teamwork, mutual support, and shared resources are at the heart of everything we do.
  • Tuākana-tēina culture: Experience a strong ethos of peer leadership and Tuākana-Tēina relationships across the whole school, creating a true whānau atmosphere.
  • Exceptional resources: Enjoy well-equipped learning spaces and beautiful outdoor areas that take learning outside the classroom walls.

Please note: This position is not suitable for a beginning teacher (PRT). Applicants must hold full NZ teacher registration (ECE or Primary).

Position starts: Term 1 2027
