Position Details

Junior Primary / Early Childhood Teacher – Full-time, Ongoing

St Paul's School Karratha is a double stream co-educational school with 400 students from Kindergarten – Year 6. The school was established by the Presentation Sisters in 1978 and today continues the charism of their founder Nano Nagle. We have a strong relationship with St Paul's Parish. Our supportive staff are focused on continual growth to improve student learning.

Karratha offers something for everyone with modern recreational facilities, cosmopolitan style restaurants and shopping comparable with other major centres. Located in the heart of the West Pilbara Coast means you can sail, fish and swim in clear blue waters one day then climb rugged hills and view the red harsh but beautiful landscape the next, without leaving town.

To help teachers, assistance with re-location and accommodation, as well as annual flights and air-conditioning subsidy is included. Please refer to the Teacher Housing and Remote Area Package available through Catholic Education WA. Information specific to Karratha can be found on our website under Employment.
