We are looking for an experienced school Administration Officer.

For the past ten years, our school has grown into a vibrant, welcoming community built on care, collaboration, and a shared commitment to excellence. At the heart of it all is our administration team - working behind the scenes and alongside our staff to make the everyday "magic" happen.

We believe that when staff feel empowered, students thrive. That's why we focus on providing strong, responsive support to our teachers and support staff - whether it's through clear communication, practical assistance, or simply being there when it matters most.

We aim to make each day run smoothly so our educators can focus on teaching and learning.
