Role description
Position Details:
Kearnan College is a vibrant PK–12 school of 300 students nestled in the picturesque town of Manjimup, approximately 300km south of Perth. The region offers a tranquil lifestyle with nature trails perfect for walking, cycling and outdoor exploration. Food enthusiasts will enjoy a rich array of local cafés, restaurants and fresh regional produce. With diverse opportunities and a warm, welcoming community, Manjimup is an ideal place to live, learn, and grow.

If there are other learning areas you are able to teach, please include these in your cover letter.

• A deep understanding of the English and HASS content areas and current pedagogical practices.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills with both adults and students.
