3 Kaiako

New year, new you!

Te Kura o Tiaho (Tiaho Primary School) are looking for some amazing people to join our small – but awesome – teaching team in Te Wairoa, Hawkes Bay.  We are central to the beauty of both Te Māhia and Lake Waikaremoana, and sit on the main highway between Gisborne and Napier. Tiaho re-opened in February this year with our brand new classrooms and Kura environment, and we are loving it.

115/116 of our tamariki mokopuna identify as Māori, and around 70% of those whakapapa to Ngāti Kahungunu ki Te Wairoa.  Whānau is incredibly important to us.

Our practice is Trauma Informed and needs based, and our tamariki learn at their own pace and place.  We are invested in learning about, and teaching, our Local Curriculum through pūrākau from our area. We are in a really exciting phase of discovery.

The positions advertised are for:

• Our Year 7/8 tamariki who need a kaiako that can form strong relationships and take their learning to the next level with a bit of flair!
• Our Year 3/4 tamariki who need a kaiako that has knowledge and a passion for Literacy and Numeracy, and loves to have fun and be creative.
• Our junior tamariki who need a kaiako that can nurture through whanaungatanga, and has a strength in building key foundational skills that will help set our ākonga up for a lifelong love of learning.

Our tamariki are unique, hilarious and real. Our kaiako andkaiāwhina are exactly the same!

If Tiaho sounds like a place that you would like to be a part of, we would love to hear from you!
