Awhi Educare Owhata Community

🌿✨ We’re looking for someone special to join our whānau! ✨🌿

Our little centre in Rotorua is on the lookout for an amazing unqualified teacher to cover a 12-month fixed-term maternity leave position. We’re a very small, close-knit team with great teacher-to-child ratios, and we’d love someone who brings laughter, warmth, and flexibility to our days.

What we’re after:
💛 A good sense of humour – laughter is part of our daily routine!
💛 Someone who’s flexible and happy to muck in where needed
💛 A real team player who enjoys being part of a small, supportive crew
💛 A love for tamariki and helping them learn, play and grow
💛No formal qualifications needed – just the right heart and attitude. ECE experience would be beneficial.

The details:
📆 Fixed-term for 12 months (maternity leave cover)
📚 School terms only (enjoy the holidays off!)
🏡 Small centre with a whānau vibe and awesome ratios

If this sounds like you (or someone you know), we’d love to hear from you! Please email us your CV and a little note about yourself to [email protected].

🌸We can’t wait to welcome someone new into our whānau

This week at Awhi we are celebrating Road Safety Week with fun, hands on activities designed to spark curiosity and build road safety awareness in our little learners. Our tamariki have been exploring road safety through various invitations to play, including painting road sign shapes, creating small worlds for their motokā and learning about crossing roads safely.
It’s all part of our rich, responsive curriculum that supports tamariki to learn through play in meaningful ways. Come and see the magic in action for yourself! We have a few spaces open now for new whānau. Pop in anytime, we are open 8.30am to 3pm Monday to Friday.😃
