Work in a team that prioritises collective capacity and maximising each other's strengths.

Under a leadership structure that genuinely believes in teacher agency and pushing the boundaries of our capabilities. Where you are not challenged to maintain order 'between the lines', instead you are challenged to do your best work outside of those confines.

It's not a dream... its Waihi Central School!

We are a growing kura that wants someone that is committed to growing with us! We dream big, back our words with actions and resource our initiatives into reality.
