We are seeking to establish a pool of School Officer for permanent and fixed term, full-time and part-time vacancies which may arise during the 2027 school year. Appointments may be offered at any time for vacancies that commence during this period.

Henley Brook Primary School (PS) opened in January 2024 with approximately 200 students from within the rapidly growing suburbs of Brabham and Henley Brook (located in the Swan Valley, near Whiteman Park). For 2027, it is anticipated that we will grow to around 520 students. At the heart of our school, is our motto; Connect, Belong Thrive, because when students feel connected to their teachers, parents feel a connection with the school and students are best positioned to thrive.

In partnership with families, our goal is for all students to make year on year growth. We provide innovative and engaging learning experiences, which promote individual excellence and develop social responsibility. We aim to support the social, emotional, and academic growth of each student through evidence-based practices, supportive learning environments and a strong pastoral care approach focused on student well-being.

The ideal applicants should be committed to promoting our school values, contributing to a positive staff culture and supporting every student to reach their full potential.
