Role description

Position Details:
Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Guildford Road, St Columba’s School Bayswater is a true hidden gem. We provide a supportive and enriching environment for just over 500 students from Pre-Kindergarten through Year 6, under the guiding principles of the Sisters of Mercy. Our school culture is deeply rooted in our Mercy Values: Faith, Wisdom, Respect, Compassion, and Peace.

These values guide every aspect of our community, embraced by students, staff, and parents alike, creating a nurturing atmosphere where mutual respect and strong relationships flourish.

At St Columba’s, we offer a range of specialist classes including Music, Technology, Physical Education, Science, and Italian, ensuring a well-rounded education. We are also proud of our dedicated Outside of School Hours Care program, which provides a safe and engaging environment before and after school, as well as during school holidays. The Promoting Literacy Development (PLD) Program is embedded across the school and the school has recently become a URSTRONG and Berry Street Education Model inspired school. 

We are seeking a General Education Assistant to join our team of nurturing, professional and fun loving staff. This position is temporary, replacing a staff member on leave. Working in the Kindergarten Classroom, you will be required to hold an ACEQA approved Diploma-lvel education and care qualification.

Join us at St Columba's and experience the difference of a school that genuinely cares about every child's growth and well-being.
