Overview

We are looking for a skilful, caring teacher to become part of our school. This is a fixed term position covering a teacher on parental leave and you do not need to be Catholic to apply.

We are small (240 students), but big enough to offer support and challenge in your teaching role. We value our teachers and actively look to make their jobs both rewarding and manageable.

Timaru is perfectly positioned in a beautiful setting in the middle of the South Island. There is easy access to recreational activities and with the affordable housing options available, is a great place to live.

You will be part of a very supportive teaching team. If you are looking for a change in setting, or the next step in your teaching career, we would love to talk to you.
