We are seeking a dynamic teacher with a passion for education to fill the role of CRT Teacher, starting in Term 2. Teachers who are qualified in specialist subject areas are encouraged to apply.

Murrupurtiyanuwu Catholic Primary School (MCPS) and Xavier Catholic College work side by side as ‘One Precinct’ in Wurrumiyanga, Bathurst Island, 80km north of Darwin. Together, we provide a holistic Catholic education for students in the Early Years to Year 12. Our staff, with the strong support of local Tiwi Teachers, and cultural and community leaders, are committed to making a difference every day in the lives of young Tiwi people.

Teaching on Tiwi is a privileged and extremely rewarding experience, where you will find yourself fully immersed in a culturally and spiritually rich environment. You will be required to collaborate with Tiwi Teachers as part of a two-way curriculum, teaching students who are socially and culturally different from you. You must be open to learning from those around you and in the community, even from your own students.

Consider submitting an application if:

  • teaching is your calling.
  • you want to really make a difference for children and communities engaged in cultural maintenance and development through education.
  • you want to life and work in the beauty, diversity and splendor of Northern Australia.
  • you want to test your resilience and your capacity for teamwork and collaboration.
