We are always on the lookout for experienced New Zealand registered teachers (ECE/primary) wanting to work full or part time permanent shifts between our operating hours 7:30am and 5:00pm.
A love for nature and a love for children is paramount as we practise respectful caregiving and primary caregiving throughout the centre. Our philosophy is under-pinned by the Reggio Emilia approach and RIE principles, providing a peaceful, calm, and respectful environment where children and teachers are nurtured and given the wings to fly.
We only want the best kaiako for our tamariki. We strive to provide excellent care and education, to foster respectful and meaningful relationships. We offer an architecturally designed building with a natural playscape, opening onto a reserve, with beautiful natural resources.
If working with a team of passionate, committed and nurturing teachers in a centre that provides a culture of communication and respect, sounds like your dream job, please get in touch.
