This is a permanent part-time (0.6 FTE) position commencing Term 2, 2025
Cape Naturaliste College (CNC) is in the States’ Southwest and is an Independent Public School with an outstanding reputation for both academic progress and pastoral care. The College is committed to providing the best possible educational opportunities for students throughout their school life.

CNC was established in 2008 after extensive consultation with members of the community and that strong community involvement continues to this day. The College began its journey as a middle school, with a strong belief in the value of teamwork and a spirit of collaboration that has come to pervade the school ethos.
Over time, a visibly strong sense of belonging and pride in the school has grown along with a significant expansion to the breadth and sophistication of the College's facilities, along with its ceremonies, extra-curricular activities, musical and sporting events. CNC has consistently shown the resilience to adapt to new challenges whilst maintaining the essence of its culture.
